Took some new pics of the truck today - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

dubie · 07-20-2004, 06:28 PM

Decided I should get my butt outside and take some new pics of the MUTT now that it's home to stay
I have some shots of the exterior, my rat rod mexican blanket seat cover and a couple exhaust pics. The exhaust isn't done yet because I have to install the smoke stacks this weekend, but I will be sure to post some pics of that as well.

dubie · 07-20-2004, 06:30 PM

a couple more here

*Gee_Emm* · 07-20-2004, 06:50 PM

You know what would look cool on the bed, little fences about 18" high that taper off towards the end. Is that a new grill or replated?

dubie · 07-20-2004, 06:56 PM

It was replated. Stingray hooked me up with it

I plan on making some side rails for it in the next few weeks

*Gee_Emm* · 07-20-2004, 06:59 PM

Ahh, I have to bang mine out and get it plated, I am just hoping the chroming will cost less then a repro.

**StingRay** · 07-20-2004, 07:00 PM

Lookin good Tim. So are the flames indicitive of the hell you went through gettin it done?
