Started reassembly of my truck. Should have everything assembled by Saturday. Haven't had any updates to post, so this is an exciting time for me.
-
One more pic...
-
Jeff - All I can say is WOW!!!! ;D
Looks GREAT - I hope mine turns out half as nice. Good Job.

Looks Great Jeff! I though you were painting the bed floor, did you change that?
-
Chris, the underside is painted...the top side will be line-x'd or Rhino lined gray or black...more than likely gray.
Thanks for the compliments guys.
-
I remember that. Are you only doing the floor? Is there any gray on the truck? Yellow liner is out then.
-
Floor only (wanted some usability out of it). The truck has no grey. I like the yellow idea, but it is more expensive...grey would provide some contrast.
-
Looks grreeaaaaat!!!! lol (http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:QHMsMG_vhlaE-M:http://www.miltontrainworks.com/MTW/services/KCC/images/K_tony_thumbs_up.jpg)
I say yellow the bedfloor definitely then if you need to use the truck throw a bed mat on top of it.
-
I would say black then since you do have black on there, or go with tan since the interior is tan... Of course you know this is just a suggestion as its your truck.
-
You and Pugsy can start a Yellow Truck Club. ;D
I am jealous. The color reminds me of my 68 Mustang, I had painted 1970 Ford Yellow.
-
Nice Truck. I love that yellow. I remember when we painted my buddies CRX like almost that same banana yellow color, it looked good, but not as good as this truck.
-
Looks awesome, a little orange tint to it? What is the color? I would do the bed floor black. I think a hard contrast is better than a soft one, just my opinion. Ar you going to work it? If not the SEM brand bed liner would probably be fine for you. Its a spray do it your self deal. You need a Shutz gun to apply it.
I will be in that yellow truck club too. Finally started working on mine again. got the draw problem figured out. A diode in the alternator was drawing 8 volts. Got the plow lights on, the wires run for the plow, beacon, and back up lights. Got the dome light working. Allot of little things.
Corvette Yellow on mine.

Definitely a nice color! ;D ;D ;D
Keep the pics coming. Hey, where's the drool smiley? :o
-
your truck is looking awesome. i think that you should out a black bed in it if your gonna do black or gray. but thats just my opinion
-
I like the yellow. Both trucks look GREAT. I would go with black bed liner. I too think like a hard color change is nicer than a softer look.
I wish I had your shops though Jeff and Blazin. I am trying to work in a 16X24 garage I built a while back.
Good Jobs.

Thats not my shop. Its a buddy of mines, he does heavy truck and trailer repair. I do all his paint work so I get a fringe benefit of using the shop. Still working on the private sale of a house that has a garage attached, 26' x 32' x 12' ceiling.
