I like it, do you happen to know the name of that paint?

Yeah, it's Rust Oleum...

I mixed 3 parts smoke gray gloss to 1 part flat black and 10% acetone and sprayed it. Not bad for $30 huh?

I'll do it right when I get time, but it was four colors and I like one.LOL

Thanks guys!

I put this thing together in about three weeks just to take it to Cruisin' the Coast. I had to fill the empty bay with a six and 3 from another truck...actually I robbed parts from a bunch trucks to make this happen. I put seats from two mid 90's f150s and carpet from an 2002 Sierra inside(C4C trucks) fuel tank is from a 90s SUV, another C4C piece...seat tracks came from a dent up front and a bump in the rear. bumper a tail lights came from a parts truck of mine and luckily I had a couple 300s, a 240 and a couple 3 speeds.

I made three trips to Gulfport last week, about 45 miles one way...not bad for a pile of junk with a cheap paint job huh?

Now I need to tear it down and do it right.

I'll put some more pics of my junk on here soon....I need to get my other slick crew rolling before it rots away....
