Well yes for the most part it is all done but trucking logo and a mfu someday but here are some picks of it all lit up on the bench then in the dark with the step deck..

All the break lights and blinkers work as well does the high beams but no back up light..





If you look close you can see I did a old school hot rod trick and did the purple halo with the red tail light..






No chicken lights on the truck just under glow lights.

Looks real sleek I like the no lights look. And looks even better without the extra fairings between tanks steps

Some outdoor shots of the truck.. Still have to lower the front end and change the bumper out and add the full fenders..

It's looking really good Paul. I'm watching with interest as always.

Are you going to use the square turn-signal lights that you got from Lynn?



I think they'd look just right on the fenders for this build.

Paul, you sure do lay down a flawless paint job on all of your trucks. Do you use an airbrush or use rattle cans? Whatever you use, you're doing it right, that's for sure!
