Glad to see this thread is still going strong!

Can't wait to pick up my tree - hopefully this year....

I drove Frankentruck to my internship today

goatless · 03-11-2021, 02:38 PM

Drove it to the garage in the background to get a wheel alignment.

Is your truck a long bed with a portion cut off from the rear of the bed?

Yeah, I guess it kinda looks like it from that angle, but, no, it's a new, unmodified short bed from LMC.

Looks good, how was the fit of the LMC bed?

I like your paint scheme.

I went to a junkyard with Frankentruck this morning. First time I've pulled a trailer with Frankentruck. It was a lot of fun, but trying to back up the trailer is making me rethink my choice of staying with manual steering

It fits great. The beds around here are few, tend to be expensive, so I went the LMC route. Total was around $1300 delivered.

LOL, thanks! I do plan on painting it someday, though.

Drove up to Commerce today for the swap meet and got some parts I needed for the truck. Ended up finding more than what I needed though as usual

I was serious. One of my favorite threads is the fauxtina paint job thread.
