Very cool. Can we see some more pictures of the bed?

JNJchev77 · 02-09-2012, 05:56 PM

The more I look at this... the more I love the paint... just a masterful job. Doesn't look like a "Patina" imitation, that paint job is amazing!! I can almost smell the surface rust through my screen?!?!

Honestly in the pics the brown paint looked awesome!!! In person it was FAR from perfect.. There were areas that were bad enough to drive you crazy... The way we are heare at the shop is if it was going to get painted it would have had to been 110% perfect... Then the problem would have been it would be too nice for a shop truck.. So this was the fix....

Devillusion · 02-09-2012, 10:12 PM

Dayyummm! This pretty much what I just sent my painter guy for my crew project.....ugghhhh! Don't get me wrong, I love it. Just thought I was the only one with the thought.

love it, but dying inside!

SBTork · 02-10-2012, 01:19 AM

I gotta ask.....what was done to the smoothies to use to stock hubcaps?

All we did was make tabs that we bolted to the wheels and bolted the hubcaps to that. I'll take some pictures later and put them up. I didn't want to snap them on thats why I did the bolt on deal. Just wanted to make sure they stayed on the wheels with the great roads we have in PA.

Very cool, I will wait for the pics. I may have to steal the idea, I really dig the look they have with the stock caps.

luifer76 · 02-10-2012, 10:15 AM
