Re: Project...praise the lowered
i didnt get the gas tank mounted yet.i have to trip a couple of the brackets that hold the straps in place and then it will be ready to go.but i did get a bunch of small stuff done.brake lines flared and hooked up to the abs unit,removed some stuff from the motor and degrease d it,got the rear suspension in place and u bolts installed,finished welding a bunch of small stuff under the cab,seam sealed around every seam and square tubing under the cab,made and welded new mounting brackets on the seats,made and welded seat mount studs and gussets under the cab.just a whole bunch of time consuming small stuff.im hoping to block the cab this weekend and get it in paint on monday.fingers crossed

Re: Project...praise the lowered
that blitz black is gonna look clean!
i thought about a flat black too..but i cant justify myself doing all this work and not going bc/cc route. theres just something about a hammered stance, flat black paint, and black rims that is hard to beat. |
Re: Project...praise the lowered
Yeah, the small stuff always gets ya. Is your front bumper bolted to the new frame? If so it looks like it's tilted up a little. IMO. Maybe an optical illusion though. :lol:

Re: Project...praise the lowered
nah.just hanging off the frame horns.i just wanted to have it look a little more like a truck haha

Re: Project...praise the lowered
after many more hours of me and my girl sanding and blocking,i finally got to spray some paint.and from the looks of it no ripples or dents.im happy with the body work.the blitz black sprayed different from what im use to but im happy with the results.

Re: Project...praise the lowered
thanks gents.feels like im really getting somewhere now.i hope to have the cab and front clip home real soon.then i can lay them on the frame and have it look like a truck again.im going over today to tackle the other box side and hood.should have some pics later
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
I was curious as to if you're gonna shave the door handles? Since you shaved the driprail among other things.
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
i was going to but at the last second i changed my mind.reason being if you look at all the vehicles on the road now days its rare to see real chrome door handles,chrome mirrors,vents in the cowl.ect..also the reason i decided not to go with the one piece window.you just done see the good old vent windows anymore.i just dont want to blend in with newer vehicles too much

Re: Project...praise the lowered
LOOKING KILLER MAN...and i agree with the chrome !!
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
Yup, i'm with you. Just wanting to see your vision. At one point I wanted that completely shaved one peice window truck, but not anymore. I love my chrome originality. Looks like you're gonna have it all with this one.

Re: Project...praise the lowered
that black looks like velvet/suede. nice!
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
coming along great that hood is gonna be cool
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
thanks men.my view on the chrome/vent windows/cowl ect is the same reason i went with a painted interior instead of leather wraped and fabric.
