More to come

Really nice work on the whole truck Rodger.
The small panel above the tail lights, is that removable? Or is the line around the edge a detail line?

Great job. Looks awesome.

Rodger, do you have details on where these ice chests are sitting? Sounds like the perfect tailgate party machine right there.

You better watch it or I'm gonna walk out to that car in my driveway with a sledgehammer and...oh wait, it's gone! Someone must have stolen it.
:woot:

'Moar' is a combination of roar and more. It's a shout for more of something. K, yeah. Back to telling Rodger how awesome he is.

The front boxes in each corner under the bed are for ice chests. The passenger rear one will be for the battery and the drivers side rear is for the gas filler and some tools. We have to also make a Cigar rack.

Tailgate progress
 
Well things are moving along nicely on the tailgate on the truck. We used the Pullmax to form the top of the tailgate to match the bedside.

Now we need to find really cool OEM tailgate handle to put on the outside of the tailgate.

Nice work.....

Gotta say though - that the license plate area sure doesn't follow any of the other lines on the truck -- a whole bunch of vertical and then all of a sudden we put in the swoop-te-doop.... :unibrow:

Well you will have to talk to the guys at Ford about that, swoop-te-doop is factory. But don't worry we are going to get started on a custom rear bumper that will cover that up. It will be a major ordeal. There is probably more time spent in the bed of the truck then the whole rest of the truck at this point.

More to come.

well look at that, you just wrote post number 409. It must be a sign that a certain project at the shop should get a LS punched out to 409 Cubes.. Just sayin!
