Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage

Bowtie468.... Love this A/C controller!!! I had a question..... Did you just purchase the controller or did you buy the complete system? (Since the controllers are sold seperately)

Beautiful build by the way!!!

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage

your truck is super clean and bad a** do you plan on painting below the trim line to match the grille as well as the tailgate letters in white ? or just the grille the rest black? looks super classy this way and different than the norm. congrats on such a beautiful truck.

Thanks Keith , if my truck ends up half as nice as your rides, I'll be happy ! I've been handling all the assembly and fab work , but I'd like to give credit to Kevin Morgan of Ronnie's Collision in Natchodichis , La for the awesome paint and panel fitment !.

He's an outstanding paint and body man, but an even better man and friend! (I know that you know this Chris, but I just felt like he deserves some more recognition!!) Your truck will be on magazine covers when you are done!!

More pics, more pics....
