DTerry · 11-03-2005, 09:04 PM

I have to agree. I have seen those on a few trucks and didn't care for them. I don't know if it's the color of the truck or what, but they sure look good this time....

roughedup72 · 11-03-2005, 09:11 PM

Looks great.show more pics. when you get her done

matthufham · 11-03-2005, 10:08 PM

That might be why I got such a good deal on the wheels and tires then. I like them now. It might be different when the truck is finally complete.....some time next century

the truck is tanger orange. I need to pull the motor out and repaint it to match or maybe just black.

**special-K** · 11-03-2005, 11:06 PM

It`s come a long way,looks good.I can`t wait to see how it looks with those Ford Flareside fenders on it.lol

krue · 11-03-2005, 11:17 PM

Looks good, I need to get up that way and check it out in person.

dirtboy488 · 11-04-2005, 12:08 AM

What kind of wheels are those? Nice Start

73737373 · 11-04-2005, 01:44 AM

Orange truck, pretty truck. What I like about people sending in photos is looking in the back ground to see what they have hanging on the walls, what tools/supplies they have on their shelves, how their garages are organized, what their yards look like etc, etc. You can tell an awful lot about a person by how they keep their things.

llegos · 11-04-2005, 02:24 AM

are those 6 lugs or am i blind?

Deuce · 11-04-2005, 02:52 AM

I would like to know also what kind of wheels those are. And what are you using for headers?? Have a part number??
NICE Truck!!!!!!

Who makes tanger orange??
I would paint the engine black for a cool contrast. Just my 2cents

**special-K** · 11-04-2005, 08:20 AM

Nice cab stand!I need to make one.I`ve been 1/2 azzin`it for years.

lloyd k · 11-04-2005, 08:24 AM

Wow, thats going to look good. Is that House of Kolors Tangirean ? I painted a bike that color and man it really "popped" in the sun light. I like PPG stuff too

biglou55 · 11-04-2005, 08:31 AM

AWESOME my projects still look like the first pictures.

chevymaz · 11-04-2005, 09:32 AM

**Yukon Jack** · 11-04-2005, 11:38 AM

That is a really great combination. It all appears to be working well together. Keep up the great work.

sixty8c10 · 11-04-2005, 01:42 PM

i reeaalllyyy would like to get that paint code from you if you don't mind

yank · 11-04-2005, 02:01 PM

Thanks for all the compliments.

The wheels are 18" budnick's.

Tanger orange is a GM color. I have the paint code at shop.

The cab stand was made from junk laying out back of the shop.

Here's a couple pics of my fuel fill hack job.
