    wwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaajjjjjjjjjjjgasdddddddd

    Sorry... I was a little speechless. I love this thing.... the light surround(?) is the coolest part. How many hours do you have involved in just the taping and spraying? I have never liked panel jobs before, but you all made me a worshipper. I want to get a car/truck/something with wheels built by you guys some day...

    4 looks better I think.

    I have been watching this thread. Very nice work It really looks good, in fact I would have to say its my new favorite ford pickup of that body stile.

    I noticed when you were taping it off you had lots of small pieces or the blue fine line tape around the radius. Is that some kind off trick of yours?

    it helps to get the line were it belongs some times thow it makes bumps in the line , pencil dots work well also
     
  14. I'm just glad the red wheels are gone.

    Can't wait to see it on the street.

    I think 3 holes, but thay gotta be moved a touch.

    Raise the bottom hole by about 1/3 of its diameter, then re-centre the middle hole between them.

    Also, check the diameters of each circle to make sure you have the same 'circle edge-to-outside edge of bar' measurements. :D

    Glad to see that you're taking notes when I call.:D I agree that the 4 holes look better. I made sure to take a pic of the note that you sent on the box with the brake lines.

    I think 4 holes looks the most coolest yous know beefalo bob. Three kinda looks like meatloaf.

    Looking good boys. Missing you from the Eastside.
