But I figured it may be the thing to do in your stage of the build.
Glad to see you are Premium member now.
If you plan to paint it just follow the path you are on.

No, its a good suggestion... i just have very little experience with wraps. Certainly worth looking into.

Regarding wraps, I saw this cool truck at a show in Sherwood Oregon in June. Was amazed when the owner let me know that it is a full wrap. So cool. The wrap guy was also at the show (PDXWraps), I'm talking to him about doing some kind of accent, stripe or two-tone on my truck - it is a little too much 'all white' for my liking.
Anyway, I sure like the way your wheels/tires turned out!

RE: coils and spindles: I will crawl under there hopefully today and see what's going on. I will shoot a pic of the spindles. I was told by the PO that it was a "full rebuilt front end" with "all CPP parts and 5 lug disc swap". So far I have found the PO's claims to be rather suspect, and I am really not certain what parts are in there...
Re: wrap: That truck looks awesome! I have never seen a patina wrap before! Thanks for the link, I may hit PDXwraps up and get some details...
Thanks for the compliment on the wheels/tires, i agree it totally improves the look of the truck!
