Re: Project "Class Act"
Hey Scott... thanks... The main Body color will be the light blue that the frame is painted and it will be Two Toned like the factory with white on the roof and below the moldings... I can't wait to get it home so I can "play" with it... LOL

Re: Project "Class Act"
Great build, what kind of trailing arms did you use? Is the entire suspension ECE?
Thanks |

Re: Project "Class Act"
Well providing I come up with the money... I should be able to bring it home Monday or Tuesday... By the Body Shop going WAY over what the budget was I am trying to scrape together another 2K...

Re: Project "Class Act"
Well I was major blindsided by this one... I expected about 800 over and that was manageable but it came in 2500 over... that I am not sure how to come up with the extra 1700... My wife is livid..

Re: Project "Class Act"
Mine has learned that regardless of what I tell her, it will cost twice as much as my estimate. And triple for the time I think it will take ...if things go well.

LOL Vic... Well the problem is I have been in the body shop business... I also had a company where I actually build Hotrods... We have a real good idea of time and materials for this stuff... so when something like this happens we get a little tense...

Re: Project "Class Act"
Mine was a little more than that overbudget and my wife was not real pleased either but she wanted me to have my truck done my way .I sold my 55 Bel Air Hardtop in order to finish my truck with no regrets .

Re: Project "Class Act"
Looks nice!
Form personal experience- Al's liner (like Monsta) seems like it's no biggie, lemme tell ya, it's a PITA. Chucked the gun across the yard in victory after I shot the last bit for the second time. From what I've heard, the only one that's semi as advertised is Raptor. Sorry about the overruns, but it looks great! As least you got what you're paying for! (Don't get me started on Car audio shops. You aren't prepared for that level of Bile-fueled rage.) Glad it's coming home!

Re: Project "Class Act"
Dan,
I brought that thing home a few hours ago! OK 1.5 Hrs but anyway... Where are the PICS. I had to change a flat (before even loading the trailer) to get it home... the least you could do is let me see it on the trailer. LOL

Re: Project "Class Act"
I have a few, maybe we could work a deal on something.
Dan, All kidding aside... the truck looked great today! After you lick your wounds the trucks gonna be killer. I should have washed the truck and trailer for pictures. There's always next time! Get that thing painted over turkey day break. I'll be expecting some more pics this weekend.
