Can't wait to see it together! I can only imagine how clean looking this will be when it's all tied together.

Hopefully the next one wont take nearly as long, mainly because hes got a ton more experience doing a restoration at a high level than he had when he started his truck

XxCHEVYMANxX · 09-21-2012, 10:07 AM

Looks good Mike ! and the separation line is off on the surfboard. run tape from tip to tail right in the middle and you can see how far off it is.

BB72CHEVKT · 09-21-2012, 10:07 AM

I think the paint on the board is a little crooked.

LOL, now thats funny !

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 10:58 AM

Nothing wrong with it being off center IMO. Some strategically placed pinstripes and / or logos from sponsors and you'd never see it. If you were to run a line from the center of the nose of the surfboard to the tail at the longest point of the board, then yes .. it's off. Worth repainting ? .. I'm not sure. If it were the same distance from the nose as it is on the tail, would it be too much white?

I think it looks more like a surfboard and sort-of an offset paint theme like it is ? Maybe have him do the pinstriping to compliment it .. or a gold / tan (match the interior) section between the colors to overlay the difference and straighten it back out ?

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 11:00 AM

.. or mirror the white to the other side of the surf board too ?

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:01 AM

here is 2 more pics from my painter , it doesnt look crooked at all !!

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:02 AM

i guess the round end and the pointed end throws me off !

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 11:03 AM

WOW ! Illusion maybe ?

AHHH! You had him repaint it !

yes it will be mirrored on the backside also

BB72CHEVKT · 09-21-2012, 11:06 AM

Optical illusion I guess???? I wondered if that was the case when I replied but it did look crooked to my eye.

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 11:06 AM

That dude does some really nice work. What type of paint was used on it? What .. ahem, .. color code?

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:11 AM

LOL....well the paint is BASF

watahyahknow · 09-21-2012, 11:18 AM

he couldve made the board look a little nicer , make scalops on it or the inside white with a bleu edge , it wouldnt have been that mush work
oh whell , where you planning on mounting it on a bedrack on one side of the bed , that might explain the choice

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:22 AM

The board is a Sponsor / Truck information board, All of the Basic info about the truck and all of the sponsors logos and custom pinstriping all hand lettered are all being done by TXPINSTRIPER a fellow boardmember ! So most of it will be covered !
