Thanks Brian! Can't wait to drive this beast again.

Got the color layed down tonight, should be shooting the clear tomorrow afternoon. I didn't have the "Inca Gold" I planned to paint it, I had a couple cans of Testors "Fury Orange" laying around, so I used that.

Decided to use the long frame for a up and coming project. I swapped in the Globe liner frame, really liking the work truck look with the short wheelbase. Might change the paint up to a two tone, green top and white bottom.



New Pete emblem.


Stole the tires off of the Globe liner too.


Got the new rear bumper mounted.

Yet again, swapped the frame...this time for a regular king hauler frame, but painted it to match the cab. It will be a slow process but I plan on painting all the frame components.




I was missing a few parts with the mirrors but I got them mounted.


Picked up some more polished stainless sheets today too. Plan is to put in on the top of the rails for a clean look...I hope.


Got new RC4WD super wide tires. I really like them, they fit on the stock wheels just fine.


Top view of the wheel.




Inside view of the wheel.


And a few more shots.

Those tires are sweet. I really liked the longer frame, large car look, but I'm guessing you've got your reasons! Maybe just spray some metallic black on the fenders and the top of the cab roof, rather then respray? I think that would look pretty sharp.
