Awesome truck/build. That is one hell of a project, looks like you're sparing no expense Who made the wheels for you? Forged wheels are the only way to go! Where are you in southern California, I might have to check it out when you're done.

 

Prowheels made the wheels for me, 22x10's and i wrapped them in 420's...

Im in ventura county... truck is STILL at the paint and body... he is finishing up the door jams and sills... had an issue with my damn tonneau cover (snugtop SL) one of the shocks went bad and it screwed up the paint so he had to reshoot and entire section... snugtop will be getting a phone call from me tomorrow


I should be picking up the truck in two weeks fully complete with paint and body... then it is off to TRADERS (shameless plug) for the complete suspension install, all belltech - drop spindles, torsion keys, hangers and shackles, shims, front and rear sway bars, street scene shocks... some calvert racing caltracs, and the wheels and tires... that should take a day or two at Traders... once that is done she will be pretty much done on the exterior.
Then she is off for a new interior/stereo, which, whatever, the one in it is badass - katzkin suede and leather seats and suede headliner... but I am doing a full new interior, along with the 5 gauges (see earlier post)... while this is being done I will have the motor and sc built and ready to go by the end of August... hopefull by the end of Sept the motor and sc will be installed and tuned... early October one last trip to the paint booth for some custom graphics (top secret) and then off to sema in early Nov!

best thing about my job is i can write off the entire truck... lol FTW baby!

 

I need a job like yours. What line of work are you in?

 

sucks about the shock Dave but im glad it will be out of the shop soon.

he's a professional *** kicker, check his screen name dude he a bodyguard.
