So, after years of upwards of $4/gal it should be in the budget for a top notch paint job. Just yanking your chain bro. I completely understand. Nice truck. I will be watching this one. Keep the pics coming.

I know right! I spent it all on cars...

Great looking truck! I've been thinking about building a long bed a lot lately. Though it would be a 4x4. To me, the long beds look better than the short beds when lifted.

It has been awhile since I updated this thread. The truck is done and a blast to drive. The 4.56 rear gears are not the best, I'm in 3rd by the end of my driveway. I ran the exhaust up through a cross member to get it around the rear end and suspension links, and I think it turned out pretty cool. The rear end has since been cleaned up and painted, ignore the crusty picture. I'm liking the long box for hauling stuff.

Looks great! Glad you've been out enjoying the truck. Have fun!

Awesome C10, what headers are you running on it?
