    Hi Johnson

    I'am also looking forward to seeing how your very cool truck comes out, my vote for the color is the bronze pearl that you showed

    The pearl will hi-lite all your neat metal work

    You could use some quilted maple with some honey colored stain for your bed wood

    The quilt pattern in the wood is killer in the sunshine, and the honey color will be perfect with that bronze pearl

    You are doing great work & a nicely detailed thread. It is going to be the perfect truck. Nice to see one with fenders and full hood. You have really nailed it IMO. Look forward to seeing more.
     
  9. Thank you sir.

    My lack of interest in IFS and semi elliptic springs has been eclipsed with your exceptional solutions to these previous preponderances.
    Superb package, excellent metalwork, and careful choice of wheels/tires have resulted in the perfect stance.

    Went through all the posts and am amazed with your work. I don't know what you do for a living, but what you do at night is amazing. Saw the video about the defective turn signal switch. It looks like an aftermarket tilt column like an Ididit or similar. I'm curious why you didn't contact who you bought it from and have them replace the part, rather than spend your money for a replacement.
