Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
I picked up some of the completed parts today. They look great in the sun. I wanted to take a few pictures to share, but the sun was covered by rain clouds. If the sun is out tomorrow I will take some pictures and blind you. I will say that after some wet sanding and polishing you will probably have to wear sunglasses to look at the truck.
Last week I took the motor to a local painter to have him paint it. I decided that a yellow motor would just be to much yellow in the engine compartment. So I went with another color, but I will not tell you what it is. You will have to wait until it's done. Sorry.

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
There is a picture of the inner fender in the sun. I took another photograph, but it was out of focus. The next set picturea I will post will hopefully show the entire sheet metal together and attached to the frame. Stay Tuned.

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
Damn that is yellow. I am banking that you went with either silver or charcoal grey for the motor?

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
I have followed most of your comments and thought "Hhmm thats a smart guy." But you must have been reading my mind. Your right about the color, but I will not say which one it is, you will have to wait a week or two. Oh keep the comments coming.

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
The cab is painted and will soon mate up with the frame once again. I was hoping the sun would come out for a bright picture, but this was the best nature could do. I will say that in the sun it took some time for my eyes to adjust so I could look at the paint, ITS REALLY BRIGHT. It will be even brighter after a little color sanding and polishing.

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
I noticed that when it was sitting in the sun the bugs seemed to gravitate to the color. Or maybe they were just more noticable on the yellow paint.

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
I've noticed that on my Yellow S-10 as well. Definitely no where near the same shade of yellow, but there must be something the bugs like about it.

Re: Project Lemon Drop: anything but stock!
Wow that looks awsome nice and shiney. That looks like the same yellow that is on my truck but probably no where near the quality. Mine is only a single stage and is starting to fade.
