Pics of last project
I decided to scan some pics of my last truck. Started out as original BB Highlander for daily driving. Ended up with a 468, air bags, 20'' Colorado Customs, redone interior, etc. You guys know how it goes. I was starting to get the bodywork done when I needed to fund some other things life threw my way. I was going to paint it the original blue with a white roof and white below the lower trim, I wanted to delete the upper trim.
If I still had the truck I'd tone down the engine compartment some, too many colors going on.

Re: Pics of last project
What are your plans for your current truck in regards to the upper molding?

Re: Pics of last project
I want to do my current truck stock appearing outside, same color combo with all the trim. I don't know how I ended up with two blue/white trucks in a row.

Re: Pics of last project
its kind of hard to tell in the pics if you have inner fenders or not. if you did have them, did your truck lay all the way down in front with them in there and with the 20's on it. also you had the same seat as i do in my truck , did everyone wear you out asking you what that seat came out of because people wear my a$$ out on where i got my seat. (its a stupid question) but i was just curious. by the way, cool truck dude

Re: Pics of last project
Yes, the blue and whites seem to find their way to my house. What can I do? I can't turn them away!
I did have inner fenders and no, the truck wouldn't lay out. When it was deflated the tires where touching the inner fenders. I was going for the hot rod type stance, I didn't care if it was super low, it had a little rake to it aired out.

Re: Pics of last project
Yes, I wanted it to look fairly stock and run like a scalded ape. It did. Those Nitto 555's never had a chance.

Your previous truck was sweet! Why didn't you keep them both, you could have had twins! (Good vs Evil)
