There was a lot going on with the build at the same time at this point, so apologies if the pics bounce around a little...

With the truck in the final assembly room, Jon got to work on the board racks and hand tooled tie-down straps.

As mentioned, Jon also tooled the leather to tie in with the seat pattern - this is pre-dye:

Concept to execution is AWESOME. This truck is so freakin cool.

You guys have some amazingly talented people working for you. Everytime I check out one of your builds they are truly a work of art. Keep it up because it's inspiring.

Time for a few new pics:

Some shots of the waterjet cut grille. We wanted a 60's motif that picked up on the woven seat inserts and strap detail:

Amazing guys!!
Those wheels and wheel centers go insanely well with that green. What color is the green? (I think you said it was custom at one point.) What about the wheels? What color did you guys paint the centers?
