Blue is my favorite color but there is just something about a black truck.

AWW....No engine block or nothin to throw in er for the show of power??
Just a suggestion,you could go out in the drive way,pop the hood on that no power, shake your balls off Chrylser.Then see'in on how you like to twist wrenches.Grab a few & jurk the boat anchor out from under the hood,& see if that dumps got the hair to lift it! Oh wait,ain't that all aluminium? Might as well grab the one out of the mighty Ford next to it.
Anyhow,dumps lookin good! Glad your going w/the proper color. Whens the flower bed vid?

Thanks Freddy but as for the video lets paint the body first and let the dirt dry out. It rained here most of the morning and then turned off sunny and 75 deg so maybe if it stays dry and we hit the 80 deg mark tomorrow as the weatherman says. I will at least try to get a video of the bottom dump trailer.

Thanks for looking.

Travis - nicely proportioned on the layout. Still stuck on black? I see a nice KW running around as white with light blue flames (front to back). It's subtle but pretty cool

Thanks guys and after talking to Freddy I can't decide between a bumper with the mud flaps attached to it or a center plate with the flaps attached to the box.

Or something like this.
