The 48 is done

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by -, Apr 27, 2004.

  1. Well just about. I have new tires for it and have to get them changed but otherwise it's ready to roll again.

    Decided not to put the scallops and the So What back on for now. Might put it on for next year. Right now I like the plain blue.

  4. Just changing the tires. I wore these out. [​IMG] The wheels get caps I just didn't put them on due to getting the tires changed.

    Buford....I used to do this every year.

    Holy shit that paint just glows in the sunlight. I like that it looks real good. You ever think of putting chrome center bullets on those rims? I'm jealous [​IMG]. later plmczy
     
  6. Wow what a difference. Looks great! What color blue is that?
     
  7. It's electric blue with the flex and flat clear over it.

    I love bullet/spider caps but the wheels are dual pattern so it wouldn't look right. I've got a pair of cool caps for one side.

    That style of blue is nearly identical to that 36 that I love. I like it even more on the truck. Looks awesome and I don't blame you for not running it with the logos for a bit.

    I was thinking the exact same thing Daign. That looks great!

    I don't mean to be an idiot, but what is "flex"? Do you mean metallic electric blue? Or some additive that you paint plastic bumpers with?

    It's purdy.
    Maybe you could get it pinstriped at the Jalopy Showdown? Here there might be some stripers in town.
    Anyway, great blue-job.

  21. Django...The flex is for a flex additive for plastic bumpers. PPG makes a clear they call flex and flat for bumpers. It works great for this. The paint store couldn't understand why I wanted to put a flat clear on the whole truck.

  22. Rat Rodder and Skatefink...If I told you what I am doing for York I would have to kill you.
    Clark
     
  23. 57...The paint itself is Omni (PPG's cheap line) wich is electric blue off of the new Chryslers. It is top coated with PPG's flex and flat clear.

    I think that is the best color yet... I think with the chrome reverse wheels and whitewalls its a winner....
     
  26. Court...It looks better with about 20 people in it, doesn't it. If that truck could talk it would have some great stories.

  27. Looks great Clark. Now get the coupe done [​IMG]
