Just came from Milinich's Body Shop, Lewis has my truck now, he said it looked like s#!+ and I didn't prep it good enough. I told him that I didn't have the time and just wanted it to look OK and go fast. He is now redoing it to look 100% out on the salt. He's gonna get a big section of the body to advertise. ;):D

I think I should give him a plug. If you are near the Hanford area and want a great body shop run by great people stop in here. :D

Anyone have a decent tailgate for the uni they might like to sell? The closer to central Cali the better.

Did you have to sell your soul to get it done that quick? Looks great!

Awesome paint done in a short amount of time. can't wait to see it finished!



Would you mind asking him what he would charge for that paint job on a swb?
That is the exact factory color mine came with, and I am not looking for a show truck. The body work will have to be addressed first, but I would tow it down your way If the price is managable. Send me a pm and we can talk

No! My soul belongs to the Lord. But I do have some great friends here on this Earth! :D God Bless every one of them. (said with a bit of a tear in my eye)

Tim the paint looks great " like we would expect any less " ;). I have to ask though whats wrong with the tailgate in the pictures it looks great to me compared to the rusted hulks around here " if you can find one " . I have 2 Uni's and even went and stripped parts off another a couple weeks ago and still not even 1 tailgate .

Tim I really like how that turned out. The way they did the two tone around the bottom of the back glass area following the body line looks great. You should bring it to KC next year so we can all see and experience it. TR

Gary is right - would be really cool to see it at Slick Stock.
