Your truck is awesome!!! You should be proud. Where are you located? This post is very WIDE. I had to scroll over about a mile to the right to just find the reply box. So don't take it personal if the replies are lacking. Or maybe it's just my computer. If you have any before pictures, we'd like to see them too.

Holly *****... Now thats a sweet ride...
I love your color combonation you used and if you would I would like to know what colors are those are that you used. I was planning on doing a candy apple black cherry on the fenders and running boards and the cab and bed I was going to use either a metalic gunmetal grey or a metalic charcoal grey. I would love to see more pictures in differant lights/time of the day...

Your pictures aren't so big, but having all the pic links side by side is messing up the thread. Go back to your picure post and click the edit button. Click the cursor between the pic links and hit the enter button twice. That will show the pictures vertical instead of horizontal.
Thanks.

Sorry to bring this thread back up guys but I was hoping to find out if there is a way to get ahold of 55_f_100 (email type). I'm getting close to the fun part of body work and would really like to find out what colors those are on his truck...
