Fingers are crossed

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Well it's there and should be back early next week. Just like I figured there is no perfect match in powder coat. yellows, orange, REALLY ORANGE or fluorescent orange where the choices. Oh well, worst comes to worst you can always paint over it in the perfect shade and you will have a killer undercoat!

Re: Another dump box variation
 

that was what I told phil powder coat it white then paint it what ever color orange rob wants. sick minds think alike

Re: Another dump box variation
 

I tried to talk Rob into having it done black and using the powder coat for the black stripes. No dice, though. I hope the closest color orange they have is close enough!:eek:

Yes, sick minds do think alike.:D:cool:

Got a surprise call from the powder coater today. She's almost ready to make a long trip!

Re: Another dump box variation
 

are the bottom two pics bleached out or is the box darker like the top pics?

Re: Another dump box variation
 

The pics from inside the shop show the color best. I think the middle ones make it look more orange than it is but :confused: Bottom pics are definitely bleached out. The next orange they had looked like a Stihl chainsaw and then fluorescent orange.

No matter what color you paint it, you cant cover up good workmanship. You could have painted it lilac and still a great build.

You could have painted it lilac

Well we know what color he wants his fleet to be!!!

Re: Another dump box variation

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Don't forget that if you use aftermarket suspension you will have to mod or make your own prop rod mount.

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Looking great , Now I have to paint the cab to match lol.

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Outstanding work as always Reg. That looks spot on!

Re: Another dump box variation
 

I had two small pieces of metal coated for you to use a test panels. Hopefully you get get it matched up without too much grief.

Re: Another dump box variation
 

phil likes grief, he's my friend after all LOL!!!

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Well I guess he and I have something in common then... your grief...:rolleyes:

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Yep I've had plenty of grief from these 2 friends lol. Will get a match mixed and hopefully do all your hard work justice with a cab to match your awesome bodywork

Re: Another dump box variation
 

Haha. Well it left my hands today so hopefully it will cross the pond safely in a weeks time. I look forward to seeing this one finished up!

Re: Another dump box variation
 

That's a sweet looking dump box.

Re: Another dump box variation
 

That is one sweet dump box.
How much is this version? I'm starting to build a Grand hauler and making it into a tri-axle dump. This is the exact style body I'm looking for.
