Reading stories in magazines about these six digit builds by shops and not by the individual isn't my cup of tea... Perhaps I could afford that when the kids are grown and gone... For now I'll keep the grease under my own fingernails... The sticker is from a bail bondsman... I called him and ordered one from him... My twisted humor to the soccer mom honor roll/Eagle scout stickers...

However... I feel confident enough to take my girls for an extended cruise now...

Hahaha, my bad I didn't mean to, but I felt "sir" was warranted considering you provided me with an hour of entertainment!!!

You know what would look crazy good on this truck, IROC Z aluminum wheels painted orange with black accents, it's too bad the bolt pattern is wrong.

Re: The misadventures of Captain Krylon - 68 C-10 barn find
Just read the whole thread (one good way to waste an hour an a half lol). Great job on the truck. I know what it is like trying to get body men to do body work and paint on a truck. I am good friends of TWO body shops and none of them want to do anything. They just complain. Either way rock on and do some burnouts!!!

Re: The misadventures of Captain Krylon - 68 C-10 barn find
Just finished reading through the whole thing. Love the look you're going for. Hope to see more. I'm going for a muscle/show truck with mine, but want something I can drive too. Have you considered painting the Rally's black to go with the theme?

Re: The misadventures of Captain Krylon - 68 C-10 barn find
Well, it's been a while since I was on here and posted an update...
Let's just say I've been busy enjoying all the fruits of my labor... I'm a little excited about it being the first year to be able to go out to shows and cruises instead of building The Beater... Here you go with the latest info brought to you in pictures... I got around to getting the rims satin black as I had planned all along...       Replaced the center caps with some spider caps... White walls will go on when I wear these tires out...   Installed some Euro spec Hellas with relays...   Took her to my boy Steven @ Blue Rooster Customs for a few tats...       Had the Gretsch done too...   Now I'm out cruising it around and having fun...    Till the next time, enjoy your ride everyday if you can...
