Thanks for the comments guys. It's nice to finally be close to having this truck done.

Great colour, it really pops. Will you add any contrasting stripes or just alllll orange? How long's the frame? Lookin' large!

Re: My Globe
 
Nick, the frame is 26.5" and the truck will look like a Florida orange grove, nothing but orange:cool:

Little bit of an update.
Got your fenders mounted up again John. I used 2mm hardware instead of the 3mm I used before.

Painted the inside of the pipes to look like there is soot build up.

And added some bare metal foil to the door hinges, door handles, cab steps and front vents on the cab. Also painted the window gaskets flat black to simulate rubber gaskets.
