That is looking so sweet already just in primer!

61_FL_Apache · 03-08-2018, 07:47 PM

Looking good!!

**CHIZZLER** · 04-11-2018, 11:45 PM

Little Update. Cab is just about ready for paint. Did A lot of back and fourth with the colors. Came up with a pretty good combo. Interior is a very unique fawn that we blended. We tried the original silver/charcoal but wasn't working well with the exterior color. Final fit on the Mob steel wheels. Thanks for checkin in. CHIZZLER

**Advanced Design** · 04-12-2018, 06:14 AM

Truck looks really cool there. Looking forward to color.

dug224 · 04-12-2018, 06:46 AM

Monumental undertaking. I arrived late. Thanks for taking the time to document! dug

**Dieselwrencher** · 04-12-2018, 04:33 PM

Those wheels look great and the interior color looks awesome!

lower50's · 04-12-2018, 06:22 PM

You are going to have one awesome truck sir!

Little late for this one, I'll be following for sure.

**youngrodder** · 05-22-2018, 01:56 PM

We haven't heard from Chizzler in a while. At the rate he was cracking along, he's probably out cruising the streets in his custom "more door" truck.

Marc

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-22-2018, 02:33 PM

He sure moves along that's for sure!

He probably has a few 100mi on it then sold it and has something new to work on. LOL

**CHIZZLER** · 05-25-2018, 12:56 AM

Thats funny guys. Still bangin away on this thing. Just got all the chassis parts back from powder. Will be doing a update pic soon. Parts are rolling in all the time. All parts except bed are in final stages of sealer. just waiting on my turn to get in the booth again. Thanks for checking in. CHIZZLER

**CHIZZLER** · 06-14-2018, 10:53 PM

Few updates. Frame and other parts came back from powder. 14 bolt got loaded with truetrac and 373's. Putting stuff back together. Body is still in primer as of now. Getting closer to painting but not yet. Trying to make everything fit. 2 batteries, fuel and trans cooler, lift pump, bypass relocate oil filters etc and all the wiring and plumbing and other stuff. Thanks for hangin in there. This has taken a bit more time then i would have liked but im not going to cut any corners to meet some deadline i dont have set. CHIZZLER

**Android04** · 06-15-2018, 11:32 AM

This is one of the most intense builds .Each time a big step has been made I feel there where hours of thought to get there. Very cool.

**mattfranklin** · 06-18-2018, 01:17 PM

Big smile. What a great project!

lower50's · 06-25-2018, 10:23 AM

Looking really good!!!!
Be careful with the trans cooler back there, I had to move mine to the front it would not cool under the bed, no cool air.

**CHIZZLER** · 07-20-2018, 11:10 PM

Little update. Here is whats going on right now. All sheet metal is painted except bed. Interior color is a modified fawn that came out looking good. Outside color is A modified olive drab from PPG. Ebony or Cameo white for the roof and grill. Wheels and a few other parts will be satin black. Power plant is now back in it's place and soon we will be setting the cab back on. Thanks for checkin in. CHIZZLER

**Palf70Step** · 07-21-2018, 07:18 AM

Very Nice!!

Grizz1963 · 07-21-2018, 08:45 AM

Olive, cammo green, call it what you like.

One of my all time favourite colours.

One day I will have something in a satin green, possibly silly and cheap, but it will scratch my itch.

This is looking so good man.
