Truck Back from paint
Got the truck back today. Turned out nice. Now I need wheels. I am thinking of going to a smaller pinstripe. See gallerie for more pics.

Well I gave you a big congrates on the practice thread, this one makes it official, your truck look awsome to say the least. It looks as though you have the bigger picture thing working also, way to go.

Very nice job. The truck looks great. I like that color combination. Now for the final assembly and hit the road.

If that paint looked any prettier,made you any happier, you would need to smoke a cigarette,drink a frosty and take a nap. Looks great, chuck

That's gorgeous the way it is! Before you re-do the stripe, put the chrome on the hood. It may look different.
