It's a beautiful truck, Rob. I like the seminole paint. Nice choice on the color combo. The trailer looks great too. Are the little orange rectangles, on the trailer, lights? Do they work?

Thanks again everyone for the compliments......Chris, u are right about the wheels, they are gonna get polished Alum......Steve, are ya reading ?

That was the idea behind this project....i wanted a working show truck. The hardest part was picking the color scheme. I had seen about 20 on the highway and at the trucks stop that were just killer looking, so i just picked this one oneday that was pulling a Timpte with the front tandems raised, crdeit goes to SnP on the paint job, all i had was an idea.
