jessfloho · 04-30-2012, 07:17 PM

OK here an up date, I finally let her get some sun this weekend, I finished the front and rear end and rolled her out to get a tan. I'm in the process of taking out all the windows, and getting her ready for paint.

JOHNORO · 05-14-2012, 10:04 AM

Brothers in July ??

jessfloho · 11-01-2012, 11:14 PM

Hey guys hows it going, just wanted to post an up-date. I've been so busy with work, I haven't really had a chance to work on the truck. So, I've decided on the colors I'm going with. Its kinda hard to see in the picture but the color combo looks great. so I'm ready to paint the cab, I just painted the inside of the doors. I painted the tailgate to see the color layout.

jessfloho · 11-01-2012, 11:18 PM

Here's the Tailgate, let me know what you think.

darkgable79 · 11-02-2012, 10:25 AM

I like the color. Is that a woodgrain or marble strip going thru the tailgate? I remember they used to have those on the specialty trim suburbans back in the day. What's the color by the way?

shawno72 · 11-02-2012, 10:46 AM

That tailgate looks amazing!!

The top color's off a 98 ford escort, I believe its called brilliant orange, the lower color is Copper orange color, I don't know the name. The strip is a candy black, I actually used foil paper to make the pattern, I saw it in an old paint magazine I found.

jessfloho · 04-02-2013, 11:48 AM

Hi All, its been a while, just wanted to give a quick update. So I decided to go with a Porter Built rear step notch and pancake the front cross member. The truck stance was to high, so I had to bring it to the ground. Let me know what you think.
