I'm just going to make it have a regular style tailgate so it will just be mechanical.

So I'm doing OK with it so far? I was able to lop off 3/8" on the back end yesterday before welding on all of the goodies. I was sweating a little when making the cuts but it all turned out fine and in the end it will look better with less overhang.

A little update. The front is really tall on this one because it will be using a custom KW cab. The modified cab is 147mm tall from frame rail to roof. I believe a stock king is about 120mm. Anyway, here it is.

the 1:1 looks like it was painted 69 camaro hugger orange.

Rob said it's a Ford orange but I know the powder coater won't have the exact color. I think they have an orange that's close though.

Looking good now Reg

Here's another update. I had hoped to have it done today but it was not meant to be. Things always take much longer than anticipated it seems but it is getting close.

that looks great. are you going to make a cover for the tarp drive?

[RCP57]

Thanks Mark. I kind of thought I would try to make up a cover for it but I guess some are belt drive. What do you think? Yes/no?

[Anyspy]

Looking Good with tarp on
Yes needs a little cover over tarp drive

[RCP57]

Cover is made. All parts are torn down, washed and headed for coating. Fingers crossed the orange they have is close enough!

[Doggy]

Your trailers makes me want to change my tig for acdc tig

[Anyspy]

Fingers are crossed

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!

[bigford]

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