    As of now the body color is going to be black with a tan interior. I may be doing a little silver pinstriping in some areas as well, most likely in the interior. It will be about a year before I get to to choose the colors but for now that is where im at. To me black and silver combined is one of my absolute favorite combinations on any old car or truck, just looks menacing and classy at the same time.

    Haha thanks for the compliment, just takes a lot of patience. I try to always take my time and plan things out ahead of time. Helps prevent alot of mistakes in the process of restoring anything. Lets you relax and just have fun because you know you already have a plan in place. It's been a blast so far, im sure i'll be in this amazing hobby for as long as I am able to. Im only 22 so I got a lot to learn haha. Thanks again.

    Well its been over 3 years since I have worked on this truck because I was finishing up college and a few other things but im finally back to working on the truck again. The truck has been in storage during that time but I finally got it out this week and started putting stuff together again. I have most of the frame put together just waiting on new tie rods to come in and ill have both wheels on the ground again, hasnt happened in over 5 years lol. I'll post some pics once I make some more progress. Its fun to start working on it again!

    The truck is coming out bitchin... Im getting ready to do a 65 LB for my shop truck (putting a Nailhead in it). I noticed your fuel tank. Are you relocating that to under the bed? and what year is it out of, could be a fix to my fuel tank issue... Cant wait to see more pics.

    Sorry for such a delayed response but the tank is out of a 1985 Bronco II, there may be other years that fit as well. The tank will be placed between the rear frame rails behind the axle. Use fuel pump part #FMSU-4600C if running a carb. If you do a google search there is a guy who did this same swap and its very easy to do.
