Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

[VA72C10]

black will look better but the interior is going to be a nice pop of color!

[superflysteiny]

I think so too Mario told me Eric dont you dare paint the bed red it will make the truck look like a repaint. Which he was right I never thought of it like that.

[svt 2000]

i think red would have been a mistake too...glad you changed your mind. Everything looks great.

[superflysteiny]

You guys should have told me when I first mentioned I was going rhino line the bed red. I have no problem with you guys letting me know what you think or your opinion. Thats why I post my builds on here so we can bounce ideas off of each other. I want peolpe to like the truck and you guys have great ideas so don't worry about letting me know what you think.

In that case I vote for hot pink bedliner.

As for a red bedliner, I must admit, it could work as a compliment to the red interior but it would have to match. If the shade was different, it would look like two things slapped together. Then again, it could be too much red. And, black has a greater universal appeal. It will probably wear better too.

Eric If your going w/ black carpet in the interior,You could do the sides red & fade it into a black floor.You'll have to spray the sides & the front first & wait till its dry then mask it & spray the black.But I wouldnt do all red,I sprayed a srt8t & I used ppg red tint in the liner material Holly Sh-t was it bright, you needed sunglasses to look at it.

This might give you some sense of what it'd look like in Red.

hot pink sounds good.

[superflysteiny]

I think black is safe so that will be the way I go

YOur work is outstanding, I have scanned thru all 3 builds today. I will have to subscribe to see what happens with the finished trucks.

[superflysteiny]

Thanks Karl. Here is what I finished last night. I made a cut through for the air lines and the wires and built a box so you would not see any of the wires or air lines from the bed. I welded nuts into the floor so i could mount the air tank to the false floor. I also finished under coating the bed.




I also finished cutting the hole for the battery box.

looking good , time for some spray in bedliner now , i dont know what brand you like but i sure like the texture that Line-ex has i think it is the most even texture, doesnt look like cottage cheese like some of the others do

[superflysteiny]

I am going with the line-x it has the best texture, could not agree more. Also not done framing in the bat. Box should have it done tonight

[svt 2000]

Red paint and red rhino liner i think are two totally different things. Once you add that texture that the bed liner has i believe it would kill the brightness of the red that that flat black truck above has. Just my opinion.

Alot of the new liners have a gloss and can be color matched to any color. But the cost is crazy expensive 950 whick I think is alittle expensive for something that is taped and sprayed. 450 for black

[VA72C10]

just to add one more option.....




Note: I would have personally painted the back part black so you don't see the red above the bumper......

His had a red interior also....

[superflysteiny]

I like that but the red under the bumper is tacky

[Novelli]

Holy crap, you were busy this weekend! Bed looks good buddy! I will be by tonight to drop off some goods for the powder coater!

[Novelli]

Black bedliner!!!!!!!!!!!!

[superflysteiny]

ok call me when you get time

[6772owner]

That steering wheel is awesome! Care to share details?

[superflysteiny]

What would you like to know about the steering wheel

[superflysteiny]

I took the steering wheel completely apart and the looms and had them coated satin black the same as the frame. The battery box will be in the bed next to the tank. Should look cool.

[6772owner]

I was just curious if it was a production piece or if you custom made it (like everything else ) Supplier info, diameter, direct fit or adapter.... etc

[superflysteiny]

This is a billet specialies classic wheels and the smooth horn button and adapter for a chevy column. I had it powder coated. The wire looms are billet specialties too.
