Hay did you use the idea I gave you about laying the flames out for both sides or did you free hand. The truck looks really good.

I actually freehand taped them off and them sprayed them last night. I still have to do the drivers side this afternoon, then hang my front bumper and wash the pig down and she'll be ready
EVERYTHING on this truck was done by my wife and I

I have an old mexican blanket that I've had for years that will be the seat cover
Bill: the shifter is a Hurst Indy 3 speed shifter and it had a piston from a 5hp Briggs and Stratton lawn mower for the knob.
