68 with 350 TPI · 06-16-2002, 11:44 PM

Just trying to figure out what color to paint the truck

I was thinking about red or white but I may even go with a pearl white with red flames.

If you have some pics please share.

68 with 350 TPI · 06-17-2002, 11:04 PM

Hey guys thanks for the pics

All of the trucks look great

But now I have a few questions for all of you.

1) Jhawkns, what kid of drop do you have and wat did you use fr it such as springs etc.

2)Andy, How close do you live to monroe NC-lancaster SC?

here's a red one

jhwkns · 06-18-2002, 08:35 PM

The Truck in the first picture I posted was one that I saved because I was curious how my truck would look with small front tires. This ones mine. 2/4 drop. Springs only.

runx68SWB · 06-18-2002, 09:10 PM

hey.... just the guy ive been looking for.... i like the stance of your pickup truck JHWKNS.... i am getting ready to lower mine 2 in the front and 4 in the rear as well.... i was wondering if you will do me a big favor.... can you give me a measurement from the ground to the top of your wheel well in the front and rear.... id greatly appreciate it.... may i ask what size tires you are running as well.... i have a set of 315/60/15 bfg drag radials that may just fit under the rear.... it will be close.... thank you

jhwkns · 06-18-2002, 09:28 PM

The wheelwells measure 29/f 30/r the tires are 275/60 15's on 8" mags. The tires are 27" tall

runx68SWB · 06-18-2002, 09:38 PM

thank you kindly friend.... that helps me out a great deal.... not too low and not too high.... just the right stance.... very nice looking truck by the way

68 with 350 TPI · 06-18-2002, 11:51 PM

Sweet trucks

Keep them comming.

CG59 · 06-19-2002, 01:45 AM

chevjayfsd · 06-19-2002, 11:44 AM

TTT
Hey CG how did you do that I'm trying to find a program that will do that but can't
thankx Jason

Chevyc10! · 06-19-2002, 12:37 PM

The first pic of the white 68 is my pickup...Its got a 4/5 drop from Early Classic Enterprises. What program did you use to turn it red? I would love to play around with paint schemes. I dropped with spindles/ springs etc. Rides like a dream! The paint is a 50 foot paintjob though. Looks good in the pic anyway! The right stance and rims really set these trucks off right...

Jake

CG59 · 06-19-2002, 09:54 PM

i did it in photshop 7...im far from good at it, but im learning, slowly, heh

jhwkns · 06-19-2002, 10:02 PM

Nice Truck Jake. I don't know what he used to change the color on that image, but I've done similar using corel8. He was asking for pictures so I posted the one of your truck. I hope you don't mind. What size are your front tires? I like that look.

KP1972 · 06-19-2002, 10:33 PM

Do one for me in BLUE

Chevyc10! · 06-20-2002, 04:12 PM

I don't mind at all jhwkns, It swells the ol' noggin a bit actually... You have to see it in person to truly appreciate the crappiness of the paint...LOL!
I got 17x8's with 255/50's on the front, 17x9.5 with 275/50's on the rear. Just put in a th400 and a B&M Mega Truck shifter, I'll get some pics soon.

Jake

Chevyc10! · 06-20-2002, 04:14 PM

Heck while your at it do one with the top of cab white, and the main body blue, and the bottom body line white. I think that would look alright...

Zumo · 06-20-2002, 04:56 PM
