Yep, that helps and yep the black ( charcoal is staying on the hood ). We are really daring to be different on the hood and the tri-tone on the truck.

Kind Sir,

Will you be retaining the color black on that fine cowl hood?

If so, then you may be creating a look that far exceeds the limits of a typical man's ledger.


Hope that helps.

Good Afternoon,

Just a couple more pictures
If you look really close you can see the orange striping between the colors.

Getting ready to go back into the paint booth.
I bet this truck has been in & out at least 20 times.

You can actually see the orange pin striping in this picture that Bob did.

Hi Marty: Please don't take this defensively - this has been one awesome deal and a pleasure to follow - but I do have to add one thing that I've noticed. The smooth over tailgate looks like an early 90's Ford F150 tailgate. Sorry man, I had to... :p

Not to worry I agree with you.

Looking back If i had it to do over I would have done a tailgate like Jon's ( Bully Sy ).

so no offence taken what so ever.

A lot of hard work was done by all to get the truck to this point.

You can see the fade in this picture.
The two silvers are the exact same color. However the fade starts below the gold stripe.

Good Morning All,

Last minute decision to smooth the Wiper Cowl.
Remember the truck has a remote wiper set up so we may have another wiper cowl with wiper holes
for the Power Tour next year.

Bad lighting but here is the only picture of the doors cleared.

2008_05_12_KD_4.jpg


The tailgate is complete and yep it's resting on the new bedliner.

2008_05_12_KD_14.jpg


I was asked for a close up of the tailgate graphics that showed the shadows that Bob does.

2008_05_12_KD_21.jpg


That's all for today.
More to come on Thursday.

Sneaky! Nice teaser of the hood. :lol: :lol:

That thing is so freaking sweet!

You are going to get me some high quality pics once assembled, so I can make all sorts of wallpapers and posters of your truck, right? ;)

I take it it won't be ready for homecoming? This might be the deciding factor if I go or not. I have a lot going on right now, and if this is there, it'll make it more tempting to go, whether it's put together completely or not.

What hood is that Marty?
Seems like the cowl comes back a lot farther than my Goodmark.

Good Morning All,​

Some of you may know we've been on the hunt for new seats for the truck.
Well, with a little direction from the BB forums (( nissan1995 )).

I looked at a bunch of vendors and found that Sparco had exactly what I was looking for.

I choose the Sparco Modena Suede Seat
www.sparcousa.com

2008_05_22_Sparco_3.jpg


I called them and hooked up with Gabe he said they still had a few available.
This led to that and the seats are on there way to Kenny's.

2008_05_22_Sparco_4.jpg


My Favorite part of the seat is the back.
To bad it's there going in a pick up truck and you won't see the back.
