Re: John's Project

This can really be taken several ways.. As a vet, it is therapy to get away from it all and yet at the same time, be an illness that can't be cured!!




but I love it anyway!!

Re: John's Project

The next step will probably be the interior, or an altitude adjustment. Still trying to make a final decision on the color I want the truck to be. Whether I stay with what color it is, or change it entirely. That will kind of decide what I do with the interior. I plan on using the fatmat stuff, and covering everything in the cab, and then nothing real custom in it.

Re: John's Project

John, be different...keep the original colors. I especially like yours for some reason. And maybe do a slight "altitude adjustment". Keep it oh, so clean.

You don't even listen to you. What makes you think anyone else will?

I listen, it just doesn't seem that way.

Yeah it's defintely not a set thing that I would be changing the color scheme. It's just something I toss around from time to time. I really like the little bit different look that Slugish has on his truck. Same colors, just a little different than mine. That and the way my future budget looks I'm sure that it will probably stay the same.

I do have somewhat of a progress statement for today. I ordered some of the FatMat sound deadener stuff. My cousin is redoing some stuff on his Camaro, and he was wanting some. So we just ordered a roll today to see how well it worked, and such.

how much is on a roll and how much did it cost? I would like to do the crew before i put down the carpet, but i don't know if I will have the budget to do it.
