Great work on the 41 and I love the color. I'll have to keep in mind the idea to use the 37 sedan frame when I build mine. What sort if mods did you have to do to get the frame to work?
I too would love to see more photos of your pickup.

Later-

TOM ,the 37 frame is just a bit to long ,and if I remember it has tabs on the side that may need to be removed.I also think I z,ed the front of the frame to get the front down more.

Nice job, I also love that color.   I used it on a Jeep and I think mine came out a little darker with gray primer under the paint.  Just wondering what primer you used if any?  I love the over all look too, and the stance.
