Thank You. I have to get over to your build and check it out. I see your in Arizona, We lived in Oro Valley for a few years. I sure miss that weather sometimes.

i "kept" meaning to, but never actually did it. ORO Valley huh, i designed a small shopping center there back in "the good ol' days" (before the economy bust). yea you miss the weather!....until it is 115 & then you will be glad you are in WA.!!!!!! LOL!!!

again very nice truck!!

Ok time for a little update. Here's a few pics of some the parts with color on them. The frame had some overspray so I pulled it apart and cleaned and repainted everything. The truck has been on the back burner a little the last few weeks because I have been really busy at work. Hope you all enjoy the pictures.

Thanks guys.

butternut1972 · 09-26-2011, 11:14 PM

WOW I didn't realize it has been over a month since my last post. I have been trying to spend some time on my truck but work and my sons sports has kept me busy lately.. I'm dead tired from 12-13 hour days by the time I get home to even walk out in the garage. I have finished color sanding and polishing the cab. Hopefully I will get to work on it some this weekend.

XxCHEVYMANxX · 09-27-2011, 07:48 AM

Looks Great!

butternut1972 · 10-09-2011, 12:08 AM

I got to work on the truck a little today. It's starting to get shiney again...

Thanks. I'm hoping for goodguys next year. I added the tubs this go around to get rid of tire rub, you never know when you need room for more tire.
