Haha Posting pics right now. That would be sweet if you got that thing completed. My buddy wants to sell me a full bag kit for 400 but It doesnt include install. I may be down and then I could learn a little something while putting them in. If you strip the chrome for me im down! haha. Heres pics of the pinstriping. Done buy a local guy Ralf "The Kid" Saldivar.
Nice. I'm loving it. Just the right amount of pen stirping. Cus it can get over done fast. But your looks good. Hoods looking good to
Get the bag setup and Ill take to our local suspension master where I got all my stuff done. He knows how to install it and he makes some sic notches for bagged trucks. Guaranteed great work and prices. The pinstriping is really good. You need to bring him along for our meets so he can get some work done for other trucks.
i thought it looked great with just the rusted hood,but now the pinstripe makes it look even better! it also looks good on the rest of the truck keep up the good work
So I got 7" roundhealights at the local junk yard which is a step for my front end. The bad thing is got hit and run while parked today. The pictures do not show depth but the panel is dented in pretty good:
Man that sucks bad. It was nice seeing your truck and meeting you in person at the show. I never noticed all the other things that you pinstriped, i just seen the hood. Man it looks sick and your interior is clean.
as she sits. dont think ive posted her with the moon caps. and one of my other rides for good measure:
Nice bike! What is it? What do you like to ride? Street? Park? Trails? Oh and nice truck, love the pin striping and the wheels set it off. Good job.
Frame is a 2010 hoffman bama with snafu wheels, odyssey cranks and forks, a shadow seat, and a premium stem. I ride basically street and park. I work at the local skatepark so I get paid to hang and ride......... and thanks i love the rims too
Ah sweet! I bought a Fit TRL1 last fall and have been riding tons of street since it started to warm up. I am in the midst of building trails in my buddies back yard. None of the skateparks around here allow bikes so we gotta find other means. Keep up the good work on the truck. I love the euro look. I am such a fan.
Ok sorry I havent been on at all or posting often I moved out on my own and am yet to get an internet connection. I did do some work on my truck. I got it with stacked blocks I 3" and a 1" on each side. There was a lot of wobble and play so we threw in some beefed taco blocks to tighten the back end up. blocks compared: old ones: new ones: while it was up we pulled out the middle leaf to undo the shorter blocks and threw on some 17" steelies. also cranked the tortions all the way so its tucking 17's
The additional hardware would be a compressor and tank for the airshocks I have in the back of the truck. I could go stiffer and lower with drop shocks but it is my daily and I actually use it as a truck so I like to have some adjustment in the rear.
Threw the old rims back on and took some pictures as she sits: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794823246/" title="photoshop 1 by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5025/5794823246_104ce92af8_z.jpg" width="640" height="427" alt="photoshop 1"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794269401/" title="photoshop 3 by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3392/5794269401_6d9c413db7_z.jpg" width="640" height="427" alt="photoshop 3"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794271557/" title="photoshop 4 by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5070/5794271557_aa1cb43727_z.jpg" width="640" height="427" alt="photoshop 4"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794829856/" title="photoshop 5 by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3014/5794829856_81010d955f_z.jpg" width="640" height="427" alt="photoshop 5"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794829984/" title="photoshop 2 (1280x853) by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2519/5794829984_d4906b5e09_z.jpg" width="640" height="426" alt="photoshop 2 (1280x853)"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794378567/" title="photoshop 7 by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5198/5794378567_7cd0e3ab55_z.jpg" width="640" height="427" alt="photoshop 7"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshuaitzaina/5794932684/" title="photoshop 6 by killamanjosho, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5074/5794932684_111f099d9d_z.jpg" width="640" height="427" alt="photoshop 6"></a>
that bad boy looks great! those smoothies are perfect for it. are you gonna do any whitewalls? also i think a chrome grille and headlight bezels would set this thing off good. also get a 79-81 chrome bumper to get rid of the plastic end caps.
It's all in the works. Trying to find a bolt on chrome wrap around front bumper from an older truck. Have the lights, brackets, and one housing for the 7" round headlights just need the other housing and the grill. whitewalls are out of the option until new tires are necessary but we will see what happens.
