Looks like you have a long weekend ahead of you. Just take your time though and make sure you don't scratch it up on reassembly!

OJ1988 · 08-30-2011, 08:24 AM

Whats the color? Looks like he missed a spot on the bedside.

The color is called electric blue, also known as "viper blue" a dodge color.
Didnt miss a spot, that was where the fender bolts on, has been sandblasted, several times over, not all the "grime" came out, so that's as best as we could get it.

Yeah, you can say that. Hopefully we wont scratch it up too much!

Looks like the beginning of putting a neat puzzle together ...

aggieguy713 · 09-03-2011, 12:26 AM

Just thought id give you guys an update, got home today, looked over the truck and put the new front bumper on, making sure not to scratch anything. Bed and bed wood to go in tomorrow!

The last picture is shortly after we bough the truck, just a neat look at the progress.

**Palf70Step** · 09-03-2011, 08:33 AM

Very Nice! Love that blue.

**70cst** · 09-03-2011, 09:19 AM

on one

lookin truck

Sweet!! I like the color and the stance, is it stock height? It looks like it might be lowered a little. It's always motivating when you get a pile of parts to start looking like a truck again.

**CC69Rat** · 09-05-2011, 11:42 AM

Good lookin truck man! I'm right around the corner from you in Cleveland TN.

OK, it is now 5:46 PM on Labor day. We want some updates and pictures of the progress.

Just kidding!! Hope everything has been coming together well for you. Take a little time off and spend it with your folks and chow down on some good old BBQ or whatever else is on the grill.

Good luck!

Keith

Sorry for the late response guys! Been a hectic couple of days getting back down to school with all the rain and flooding around here! Mostly finished up the truck on monday, still have a few odds and ends to take care of, looking great so far!
