The truck was painted in stages to keep the costs down on my end. I'm building this thing on my dime and only have so much funds. It was also done in stages for the the magazine coverage in the build stories in Truckin. It was also done in stage since it is BLACK. We installed a paint body on a bare metal chassis, that never happens. We also took some time off on the build to run my business. Plus I have made a few changes on the way. This was supposed to be a 75,000 shop truck 2 years ago.
The flip down license plate would be slick but there is no place to hide it since it is so tight and fully exposed in side the bed. I plan to show it with no plate and Install the bracket later. I hate license plates and outside mirrors, they ruin the flow of so many cars. I was tempted to sink on an angle into the tailgate.
