OK so im at a standstill until i can start getting parts, so i decided to put the truck back together to see roughly what it will look like, and i make my shopping list of needed parts to finish I put the rack back on and took a scrap peice of sheet brass and made a temp texas bumper. AND WOW!!! Im loving the way this thing is going to look!!! I decided to try to keep the truck as close to the 1:1 as possible but change it a little at the same time. Im not sure what color ill end up with but it may not be orange/white.. may be red/white or take it old school with a brown/crimson scheme. anyways as usual heres some pics, cause i like seeing pics of progress to go with the words

Back view (intakes and pipes installed)

Side view with my fenders (still undergoing revision on them)

Again with boredom i made a load and strapped it down to the trailer using the holes i drilled for the lights it will be getting eventually.


Heres the temp bumper


Then had to run it around the basement







Thats all for now.. might make a video and still need to upload the ones of my daughter riding on the trailer. Thanks for looking and all the nice comments. I hope to start ordering parts this week to get this build moving along.
