Jason, I love those wheels, ..... I know they're old school to some people, but I think they are second to none on accenting these trucks really well! Outlaw 2's, are they?

I think so mark I know they look old but I have always liked them, not sure how Im gonna do it yet but I want to paint the inside of the small holes yellow just to set them off alittle. what do ya think? Im hopeing to have the engine bay clean and atleast preped for paint tomorow, it will be painted befor I head back to work so you will get a better idea of the color in a few days or less.

Cool, can't wait to see the engine bay, etc. Yeah, i know what you mean on the inset of those holes.... I've tried to explain that to several people, .....it can look REALLY good. Wow, another yellow Runner round here, eh? hahaha. Cool, but, as long as you don't dog RED, HOMIE! hahahaha.

Cool, Red is all I have right now, so yeah! hahahaa. Jk, glad to see you AT IT again, ya know?

Keep at it as much as possible, bud, ...you'll have a sweet yeller runner, sooner than you think! Can't wait to see that come together for ya, ....oh, yeah, and 'sorry bout the fine, bud', ...been there. Not for weight, rather, because I got a flat with 40 55gal drums of some Military rinse tank acid wastes...???? "CUZ I HAVE A FLAT, SIR? I think I did very well not flipping this heavy SOB, ...then, to get out of traffic, safely".... "Yeah, but your inner opposite side tire is a MM or so beyond spec.... sorry". WTH? hhahaha. Tough state to drive in, man... but MAN do many trucks come through, in and out of here, ya know? lol.

Ouch, sorry to hear about the problems in Californai. They got me out there one time and they shouldnt have a budget problem with the size of the tickets they give out there. It is just unreal.

Those are the type of rims I have been scanning for on Craigslist. I have always liked those, so I guess that puts me in the old school group too. I always like to see body work going on in these projects. Keep up the good work.

Im still learning the paint thig. Sometimes cant do anything wrong and the next time is anybodys guess. Im just checking in on yours and others builds. Got a lot of catching up to do. 24 hours just isnt enough in a day. Maybe you can get home soon and start again.

So did the paint blister, wrinkle? Got any pics? What kind of paint you using?

terry thanks for checkin in, yeah the paint wrinkled, thankfully just in a few small areas, I talked talked to a painter freind of mine and he gave me a few ideas of what might have happend, when I get hame Im gonna just clean up those areas and start over, hopfully it will look all rite. as far as the paint it just so cheap stuff I had Orielys mix for me it not what Im planing on useing on the rest of the truck. I do have some pic but I forgot my camera at home or in my p/u realy not sure wheres its at lol.

Im guesing you are still out on the road. Hopefully your trip will go quick and you can get back and get started. With the weather being bad in the past few weeks, you havent missed much. Hang in there.
