I love the Blue and White two tone. That is very nice looking. Cant wait for more pics. Did you paint it yourself? Looks like very nice work.

Thanks everyone...I cant wait to get her back home...Bringing the Chassis by on Wednesday so I can have the painter help me get the cab & Box mounted back down....then she's coming home!

For those of you wondering...NO I did not paint it myself...I WISH!....I'm more of the metal worker/fabricator type....I'm the worst body/paint guy ever (I've tried it)...LOL

I actually had a buddy of mine do most of the body work...I assisted with some of the metal repair and welding that was needed. It then got blocked, prepped and painted by a guy named Chris who owns a small shop here in Mesa, AZ....The place is called "Elite Auto Finishes"...Really cool guy who does awesome work at very reasonable rates..

Here's his website:

I'll be updating my build thread soon with some more pics!
