Re: John's Project
This can really be taken several ways.. As a vet, it is therapy to get away from it all and yet at the same time, be an illness that can't be cured!!
but I love it anyway!!

Re: John's Project
The next step will probably be the interior, or an altitude adjustment. Still trying to make a final decision on the color I want the truck to be. Whether I stay with what color it is, or change it entirely. That will kind of decide what I do with the interior. I plan on using the fatmat stuff, and covering everything in the cab, and then nothing real custom in it.

Re: John's Project
John, be different...keep the original colors. I especially like yours for some reason. And maybe do a slight "altitude adjustment". Keep it oh, so clean.

You don't even listen to you. What makes you think anyone else will?

Re: John's Project
I listen, it just doesn't seem that way.
Yeah it's defintely not a set thing that I would be changing the color scheme. It's just something I toss around from time to time. I really like the little bit different look that Slugish has on his truck. Same colors, just a little different than mine. That and the way my future budget looks I'm sure that it will probably stay the same. I do have somewhat of a progress statement for today. I ordered some of the FatMat sound deadener stuff. My cousin is redoing some stuff on his Camaro, and he was wanting some. So we just ordered a roll today to see how well it worked, and such. Last edited by JohnC; 01-23-2010 at 02:04 AM. |
