My truckster

[Smart-Resins]

Alright this started life by a cab I got in a trade. Later I got a Thames chassis. I decided to mate them for life. I then found a extra 29 truck bed so the project bega. I z'd the frame and dropped it. I origianlly started out with a TRAK style in mind, then I found these really cool rear tires and threw the rims in them.Then I got a grave Digger mill in and it just looked too bad, so that is what I am staying with. Here is some mock ups of the cab on the chassis and of the chassis now.Ready for some spot putty, then primer. The doors will be suicide style and the bed will hinge up. The interior will be aluminum and tuck n roll. I will be spraying the body with a metallic smoke grey and adding some killer flames. The chassis I am debating chrome, bright red or fiery orange? The interior I am debating classic white or fiery orange, or both(along with the aluminum floor. Thanks.Jody
