Re: Project Platinum C10

Thanks guys, I have been sick for the past couple days so I didn't go Saturday to pick up the truck. Here is a picture that I took Friday that I like. Has some good reflection in the paint.

Re: Project Platinum C10

So I finally made it up to the shop and got my truck. Let me say this. I had to drive it about 5 miles with no windows in it to the glass shop. It was FREEZING to say the least! I'm hoping they get the windows in today so I can have the wheels and tires put on Saturday.

Re: Project Platinum C10

I am excited for you.

Hope it is everything you wanted and then some.

We need LOTs of pictures. And then tell us what you would do different, not only to the truck itself but how and who you hired to work on it....

Haha, I wouldn't have told the paint shop I wasn't in a big hurry! Overall they did a real good job on the work itself.

Re: Project Platinum C10

Update! Last night I got the grille, headlight bezels, grille trim, custom badges, front bumper, cab trim, tail lights, side markers and the drip trim above the door (I guess that's what it's called) installed. More pics coming soon!

Got a little bit more work done. I need to change out one headlight today and hopefully get the rear bumper installed today.

Dang! That cab band and bodyside molding looks so good. Great job man, great looking truck. Are you doing anything fancy/upgraded on the lighting?

Thanks! Eventually I would like to upgrade the lighting but I'll keep the factory lighting until the interior and engine are done.

Re: Project Platinum C10

Couple more pics. I couldn't install the windows because they didn't give me my power windows switches back from the paint shop, lol. I'll have to go by there tomorrow. I need the switches so I can roll the windows up to wash it

Haha McCoy, you do great work! Every vehicle I have owned I have installed a billet grille in. I think I'll have to keep the stock grille in this though. I love the original trim on these trucks.
