    You may have read in another post that my buddy Russ painted the spacetruck this weekend. Here are some pics. The grille and all the interior trinkets have yet to be painted.

    It looks lighter in the pics than it really is. It also looks kinda aqua. It is actually VERY blue. PPG Big League Blue to be exact.

    That looks bitchin just like that!!!!!

    IF you're going to do any graphics on it, study the LOGIC behind the way Roth laid out the panels on Beatnick Bandit and how Watson did his first (and in my opinion best) panel job on his '58 T bird.

    No graphics. Maybe just some pinstriping on the body lines.

    Man that thing is fuckin' cool...

    And you have perfect timing... just when I'm ready to give up on my own projects, you give us an update...

    Every time I see that truck I can't get enough...

    Thanks, you just made my shitty day working on my car a little brighter and brought back a little of that fire to work on my own shit....

    down here there's a shop called clark rubber, of which i'm sure the states has an equivalent (or twelve) that sells all sorts of rubber and plastic products, including weather stripping of all kinds in lengths that you can just cut to size.
     
  27. Wow..love that thing..and the "boot"/"trunk" is sooo cool..haha


    Cheers! [​IMG]

    Very Cool! Can't wait to see it in person at some of the events this year, that is if I can get through the crowd that will be around it.
