Are you planning on running the Silverado lower trim panels on the door or a derivative thereof? A leather covered one with a polished/chrome strip at the top or are you leaving the bottom of the door naked?

We have discussed that but I’m not 100% sure yet...as for now it’s staying naked. I just like simplicity of it, not to over done

WOW!!! This has to be one of, if not, the best/most thorough builds on this site! Breathtaking work you have done. A piece of art.

I'm gonna go throw rocks at my truck. Hahaha.

LOL

I had no idea what I was in for when I read your first post about hauling it off to the shop. What a ride, and what an amazing truck. Thank you for keeping us up on it.

Thanks so much....it’s been a long process but we are just weeks away from wrapping it up. Appreciate all the kind words from all who have followed along

No sir, not yet...about 1/2 way through the build had a drummer from a famous rock band interested but it never did happen.

Finally it’s on wheels! I really like your truck it’s come along way and loved it when you first bought it. The fact that it looks factory until you look inside is the best part. I’m not generally a fan of ultra low trucks but this is my favourite by far, well done sir well done.

looks like @airslamit just bought a poor copy of your truck. TBH, it looks like a generic version of a name brand when compared to your work.

So killer! Looks amazing man. What are the paint color codes? Still Santa Fe Tan? (sorry, nearly color blind so hard to tell on the computer)

thanks man....we tweaked Buckskin a little.

Truck is absolutely amazing! Crazy how the general concept is unchanged from before the build, but this is definitely a completely different truck! Awesome work! :metal:

I'd love to hear and see this thing rolling a bit!

thank you...I didn't want to stray too far from what makes us love these things, just a few subtle changes here and there

Kinda looks like you just need to put the center caps on it and it’s done. The truck looks flawless.

Thanks, lol... center caps will be last. Have to test drive it, make some air ride adjustments, charge the air conditioning system...a few other small things and give it a once over after the test
