Re: all shined up and ready for the show

Very nice! ..... I love the rims and tires. I went down to the last image and I was thinking "dang... perfect but the rear bumper." Then I saw your text.

Re: all shined up and ready for the show

Call me crazy, but I like that rear bumper. Want to sell it? What's it off of?

Re: all shined up and ready for the show

A beautiful truck. Wish mine was that nice.

I do have a detailing tip - get a small pint of POR-15 "Metal Mask" or the Eastwood equivalent... it's a durable cast iron look, you can paint your master cylinder and similar parts and they will look good forever.

That's the only part I see in the engine compartment I wouldn't eat off of... :-)

it will be done next week, i wish i would have had more time to get it done before the show

the bumper is off of a early 90's truck. Once work settles out and i can put in o/t again i will have the right bumper on it

Re: all shined up and ready for the show

Wow, It's nice to see a real truck that can still get gussied up and go off play with the show trucks.

I rather like that back bumper but I can see where an original style chrome sport bumper would look better.

Re: all shined up and ready for the show

Yeah... I was just saying that I think an original style bumper would look better on jamieg's truck with the way he has the rest of the truck set up.

IMO
