syborg tt 05-20-2008 11:56 AM

Good Afternoon All,

Bob wanted to see what the truck would look like with the wheels on.
So out comes the bucket and on goes a tire.

This is pretty close to ride Height.

Now imagine the rocker extensions on it.
They lower the body panels another 4 1/2".

That thing sux. If I were you I'd park it at my house. And leave the keys while you're at it. :unibrow: Seriously, great build and thanks for taking the time to basically create a web build book for other to learn from. :thumbsup:

syborg tt 05-23-2008 10:48 AM

Good Afternoon All,

I can tell that these pictures don't do the paint work Justice.

You can actually start to tell what it's going to look like.

thanks Rad - how's your project coming along ?

syborg tt 06-02-2008 02:05 PM

Good Afternoon,

Just a couple more pictures
If you look really close you can see the orange striping between the colors.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...9_KD_2_001.jpg

Getting ready to go back into the paint booth.
I bet this truck has been in & out at least 20 times.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...9_KD_4_001.jpg

You can actually see the orange pin striping in this picture that Bob did.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...9_KD_5_001.jpg

Honestly, If you look really close you can see the orange pin striping.

marty

the last couple of days i sand blasted the rambler almost everywhere except the roof skin and door skins....and epoxy primed it.im trying to get the metal fab done so i can get color going on this thing.the front inner fenders have to be built from scratch and they are kickin my a$$ because of the way my tubing runs from the firewall to the frame.i think i got it figured out today . i dont have photoshop on my computer anymore so i cant resize pics and post them ...it just looks like it changed colors for the most part.i just got rid of all the old paint and some corrosion .so its not much to look at.i just want to put the damn car together... ya know ? im sure you know what i mean...
ill find a program to resize some pics and post this week

your truck is coming out great:thumbsup: keep posting

Thanks for the update on your car. I can't wait to see it .

go to http://www.hamrick.com/upg.html download the english version of vueprint. I think it's like $20.00 has really easy to use resize option.

ps - can't wait to see the updates on your rambler.

Quick Update -We have clear
I think I am going to send Kenny to Photography Class

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...04_29_KD_9.jpg

A lot of hard work was done by all to get the truck to this point.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...4_29_KD_10.jpg

You can see the fade in this picture.
The two silvers are the exact same color. However the fade starts below the gold stripe.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...4_29_KD_11.jpg

Payton King 06-05-2008 09:22 AM
