Looking good, can't wait to see my truck in that stage!
Fresh tease!
Went by the paint shop Monday and switched the steering wheels (put in a gm four spoke). Took a few pics of the end gate inside finished. The trim piece covers 99% of the inside.
I had told him to just get the ends and go in about three inches. This shows you the effort he is putting in to the paint job. Notice the lack of paint on cables and rubber parts.

Ordered the parts from LMC Truck today to finish off the paint work. Wednesday is the next stop at paint shop. Hope to see more red on it.
LMC Truck is going to be sending some goodies to the organizers of the Depot Days Car show as well.

Monday the parts came in from LMC and I took the side molding kit up to paint shop. He had it all masked and in the booth. Today (Tuesday 11 March) the winch and recovery kit was delivered.
So all but one part has been found, bought or donated to finish the build. That leaves the tires! I have decided that I am going to use the Mickey Thompson TTC radial Claw tires in 33x12.50 15R LT 6ply on it.
Little more aggressive side wall than original but tread is closer. All I have read on the tire sounds good especially the low growl on highway. I took the money I had gotten from selling ammo to help a person in emergency so tires may not be done by the debut date.
Now comes the putting it all together when Mayboca finishes the paint job. We just had a small snow storm here too!
