I like the paint scheme you chose. It's really sharp. I also like that you painted the frame, axles, cross members, and everything else. Nice to see a different colored transmission too. So many guys paint them Cat yellow, so they look like an engine or something, but I like that you went with silver. Hurry up and get it all assembled, so we can see the finished truck! Bet it will be really sharp.

Love the way the paint on the truck came out. I can't wait to see some pics of it fully finished and outside. That paint looks like glass inside I can only imagine what the sunlight would do for it.

Thanks Tyler, I'm going to try to get some shots outside with the trailer depending on weather here in New Jersey.. It really shines in the sun.
