Truck is ready.
All put together after paint except upper trim on the bed. Need one more undamaged NOS upper trim for longbed. I've bought five and four have showed up damaged due to seller saying they were straight and UPS destroying two of them. Going to a show Saturday anyways.

Re: Truck is ready.
Absolutely stunning! I’m glad you kept the original two tone blue. Great job 👏

Re: Truck is ready.
Thank You all. I had second thoughts about going with the original two tone but I'm glad I did. The tires are LT265/75R16, I tried 285's but they rubbed when turning. I have new wheels on order, going to paint them dark blue with 285's and a 2" lift.

Re: Truck is ready.
Love it!!! I have never seen that 2 tone blue before, but that is sweet -great job!
(I'm with you on the LWB trim issues ... have a show we're trying to be finished for on Oct 16th & will probably be missing one piece myself.)
