Sorry, but the back bumper needs to be changed. Either buperettes or a chromer. And definitely not a fan of the mirrors, but it's your truck and style.

 

Good job. The cut on the paint looks good. It also needs an altitude adjustment.

[oldskoolvws]

Oh yeah, Six Rings baby.

[mrbigtanker]

Little 2 busy for me.but yours is painted and mine is not,so your 1 ahead.

[oldskoolvws]

Tanker, you don't like this?

 

.......and that plate needs to be restored, very interesting CA process to try to bring them back: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/legacyplates/index.htm (sign up now).

If it was black to yellow I would like it better,but to many lines .i don't like the stripe and the hood stripe,but its not my truck.

Maybe you guys are just jealous?  I like the comb - it turned out looking great!

 

I think that yellow, especially the center stripe on the hood, looks very sharp.

I'm sure you're eager to get it back together.  Great timing, spring it almost here.

yup that's right i am jealous.

The paint looks good. Don't wax it for a month though, would be hard to not touch it. I'd be tempted, but would have to put her away for a month. Hope I can paint that good when the time comes.

[kike69]

Thank u thank u ....

I think it turned out dope ......want some different mirrors though

I don't now a bout the mirrors my truck looks like an old lady with glasses. :) :) :) :)

I like the paint & the mirrors. Now if you get some vintage CA black & yellow plates restored. These plates were available from 1963 to 1969.  1970 was the year the blue & yellow plates appeared.

[kike69]

Thanks I will reserve my plates and save this ones

[kike69]

after a while black and yellow i don't know....... :confused:   i think i'm going to change the color  ... Black    :thumbup:

[wayno]

I believe it was all black once, I remember seeing it all one color before it was put back together, but the photo is not in this thread, I thought it looked awesome one color.  :)

[mrbigtanker]

Dude it looks good but it's how you did the cut between the yellow and black,also polish the front grill and lose that front plate.and yes poor choice in mirrors but that can all be fixed,that said at least your truck is painted mine is not.Keep up the good work.

[Kirden]

Looks good but I agree that there seems to me a bit too much going on. Too many lines for me, but it isn't my truck. That being said, good luck with the rest of the build :)
