gonna have to confirm this in person.

my sources (wife and kids) say that the truck was still blue on Sunday......yes .....my family are creepers.....hehhehe. nah, they were at the wife's mother's place which is about 300ft away.

i was kinda looking forward to a backyard paintjob at my house......could still happen.

Wow I had you guys going for a minute there. And YES that IS a PHOTOCHOP. And IS NOT real.

what about this: (notice I also painted the wood black) I have black stain I will probably use left over from my last bed)

Penguins Colors (I am a PENS fan)




Flyers colors (Girlfriend is a FLYERS fan)




OD (I'm Prior Military)




And Jerry's personal favorite, hot pink.

I really think you should go black with the OD green. I do like the gold as well, keeps the Steelers and Pens going!!!

Hahaha... Poor Lumpy! lol. Hey, I thought it was real as well.... GREAT with the PhotoCHOPY eh? lol....

I like the Black and Gold(first one) and the Black and Green(like that best)...and maybe you could bring the rims into it and get some green/black blend into them? lol.

Had a little fun today with my homemade bumper that I made a while back.

Got to bolt her up yet so I can use it on Saturday at the mudbog to hold my chain. Also have to deal with a little overspray on the bumper

I also will eventually make longer bracket to push the bumper out some. It lines up perfectly if I only use 1 bolt per side, but I am not gonna do that.







It's not perfect. Again, I think I used a little too much paint. This paint seems a little touchy on the amount you use. Not quite sure why. I usually don't have that problem laying too much rattle can down. As some of you have already seen with my "Yotatech" stencil on the tailgate.

I didn't go the whole length because I think at one point I am gonna hack about 4 or so inches off the bumper on each side. Girlfriend thinks I should just leave it that length so I don't know.

I also have to relocate the backup lights yet. I also still have those clear lights for the bed that will become my backup lights, but I have to get a trailer taillight converter so I can get rid of the ambers.
