It was actually an accident. Years ago I had a bodyshop spray it satin black.When I went to pick it up,they had just sprayed it w/black primer..I said WTF?,out loud,.I needed the truck so I said just scuff n spray it w/some sealer so it looks satin. Im not sure what they did but you can see its preety close to satin black.
I would go w/a single stage satin black like HRF,as mentioned.

modblacksmith · 02-25-2011, 07:19 PM

Grate build, just sat in the office for an hour reading threw it. Your truck looks grate, love the color. I was wondering how you are going to finish off the dash or if your going to leave it open? I saw you had some templates made up in one of the pics but there wasn't anything after that.

Inverter · 02-28-2011, 12:45 AM

I thought I had this pic somewhere in the thread but I forget.
I will have some wedge shaped covers over the top of the two pod areas made w/the same material,10 gauge aluminum.

Thanks for the good word.

Yeah you do have that pic up. I was asking about the wedge shaped covers, that's going to look way cool. Different from the normal glass dashes.

my4by2 · 03-12-2011, 09:51 AM

Beautiful truck man! Can't wait to see the finished product!!! Love the body mods & the interior plan so far!

Kim57 · 03-18-2011, 09:34 PM

I lost track of this thread for a while.
The truck is looking great, I love the color.

seth is usdm · 03-20-2011, 10:50 PM

OMG i dont how i didnt find this thread before. your work is amazing. i love your ideas and follow through of them. this truck is turning out beautifully. i have a thing for satin paints but the color you chose looks awesome! cant wait to see it out in the sun and especially with some dark wheels.

81k10 · 03-26-2011, 11:07 PM

hows the project going man? im in love with that color. and the pure uniqueness of the fabrication. you are THE man.

jared.landis · 03-30-2011, 08:35 PM

im am jealous. you are very talented and have a great eye for detail. i love the blue. keep us posted. i cant wait to see what you do with the interior.

MarKist · 05-17-2011, 11:06 AM

ok, its been almost 2 months, I'm freakin going crazy over here, any updates? this thing is gonna be all over the magazines. are you gonna let Anita model the Pics

Inverter · 06-06-2011, 12:19 PM

Finally got this thing home. These are all the pics I could get.Its still a roller so I cant move it around. Overall turned out well,disappointed in some of the fitment and rough edges but I was tired of getting labor bills for little to no progress. On a scale,,I'd say its an 8.

Feels good to have it home where I know its safe.Thanks for lookin.

Workin on getting the dash panels in place and laying out wiring. Lot of work to still do.

jb1016 · 06-06-2011, 12:22 PM

Awesome, glad you got it home! That dash is gonna be killer.

VA72C10 · 06-06-2011, 01:50 PM

Looking great!

Kim57 · 06-06-2011, 06:16 PM

Looks real nice.
