Re: Satin Or Flat Trucks.. Lets See Pics!

Here's mine;
coming

And going


It's a semi gloss, which doesn't look as cool as flat... but I've had flat before, and keeping it clean was a total PITA
The paint;

Re: Satin Or Flat Trucks.. Lets See Pics!

I've wondered over and over what it would look like with the white roof...esp since I have the grill and bumpers in white.
That looks much better than I woulda thought.

Re: Satin Or Flat Trucks.. Lets See Pics!

Is this truck waxed? That looks really shiney but still has the flat look.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

The laid back hoods were on 67-68 trucks. I believe 70 was when they went vertical.
