It's awesome. Nice job under the hood too. The flat black looks really good and gives it that custom hot rod look.

Well I posted a while back to see what you folks thought of flat black with gloss black flames. I'm half way there with the truck now shot in flat black. It certainly brings strong responses, either people like it or hate it with no one on the fence. I have to order the flame stencil (yes I know its the easy way out) to shoot the gloss black. I have a photo in my gallery. One thing is that its a bugger to see at night. Anyway, thanks to everyone for your input.

I wouldn't have thought of lime green as my first choice, but after looking in your gallery I think it'll look great. The stance of your truck is perfect. What rims are you runing? What colour will your interior be?

Going to paint all the steel interior -Tripple Corvette Black (that's what the guy in the paint shop called it last night) with cloth grey interior- Actually that's an old pic (had 285's on it) It now has 315-75/16 with alum 16X8 wheels. I love the stance too- I also have a 2" shackle lift still to install, then I'm done, honest.....well maybe a dvd player and prerunner bumper with winch- then that's it......

Hi John - looks great.
I can't wait to see what it looks like with the black gloss flames.
BTW, thank for keeping us updated.

I love it. Very raw looking that says, "I'm a beast."
Where did you get that ram air? I love it!

Thanks Gidde Up.
The Ram Air box was purchased through www.ramairbox.com, I'm running the 14"X5". I welded in two 5" pipes into the rad saddle for my intakes. This gives me the supply of cold air and its lower than the air filter assembly so water stays out of the filter (mostly).
I've got the old girl back at the paint shop two apply the gloss black flames, I'll post a picture as soon as I get it back and cleaned up.

When I first heard the description I didn't think I was going to like it. After seeing the photo I like it! 
Maybe even some gray striping or gray wording of somekind (Like the stealth bomber has) I think would be a nice touch.
Great idea! Very orignial!
