Yah, it's a S-10. I subscribed to it. He hasn't done anything with it for a while though. He's pretty creative!

Ok, to stop bulldog from giving me crap, I took the bed off. LOL! I've gotta get the bodywork done on it anyway! But it was such a beautiful day, I had to snap some pics!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/20/e7yzyvy4.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/20/e3uzyqud.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/20/y4aduvet.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/20/6y8esagy.jpg

We've all heard the phrase: "Shit'll buff out." You buffed the bed right off the truck. Pretty pics are for when the build is over! Don't procrastinate the hard stuff or you'll end up like me. 8)

LMAO! Not the response I expected! I'm not procrastinating. I'm doing things as I have time and of course, for the paint, good weather. As for the pretty pictures, I couldn't help it. It was a beautiful day and a near perfect spot. I had to! :-)

Thank you for the compliment!

I have never attempted to build anything like this before. I did a lot of reading on the forums here and researching parts and so on before I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did! I've had a great time building it!

Thank you for the info on the Hobby Shop! I like to go to different ones around the country when I have extra time on a load. I've met some really nice people! I'll PM you if I'm ever able to stop there ahead of time so that maybe we'll be able to meet up!

I built a Chevy on purpose! I didn't want it to fall apart while I was driving it! Lmao! Maybe I'll build a Ford someday to pull around on the gooseneck? LOL! Seriously, I'm just playing around! Thanks man! You need to get to work on yours!

New small update! Most of the stuff I've done on this truck has been inspired by trucks in Truckin' magazine. I've tried to incorporate today's trends into it. Well, although I liked the grille insert that I got from Germany, it just didn't fit with the styles of today. So I decided I would make my own insert! I've never seen anyone make an insert like this in the forums here. I think this fits more into my style! So here ya go. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/24/5a6ejezu.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/24/ny2ujyda.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/24/ahu9u7y5.jpg

The part that sucks is waiting for the primer to dry so I can wet sand it again! You know, I gotta use the primer to fill all the little pits and dips!
