Looks shweeeeeeet Ben. How long did it take you to finish your ride?

 

Hey Fred
I never use the "finished" word. Still working some mechanical issues - 3 years or so. We had lot's of help. My 20 year old son loves it.

Are there any truck clubs in your area or other guys with like interest in your neck of the woods?

 

Fred, spectacular work, it's a shame that here in Spain it is impossible to have a job like that,
Thanks for your interest in my post

 

Capelo,
The frame on my truck is powder coated (esta pintado en capas de polvo). I powder coated it at my shop. The motor, brake calipers, transmission case, differential and suspension are also powder coated. Thank you for your comments.

 

electrostatic paint it, I had never heard of it, as it applies? has an advantage over other types of paint?

 

It's advantages are it is applied over a sandblasted surface, and when the item is in the oven, the powder melts and adheres better to the profile left on the surface from the sandblasting. It creates a tougher harder surface that does not chip or scratch as easily as a liquid painted surface. I can go on and on and on but you can see how it is applied on videos located in You Tube. Just type in Powder Coating in the search bar and you can view everything that can be done in the powder coat field. Hope this helps.
