Those taillights are great! And the rear bumper looks identical to what they came with from the factory.

Hey Scott The whole truck looks great! One tip, when you make the bumpers and there hollow, I would put some casting resin to fill up the hollow section so the bumper is a solid piece and won't crack if you should hit something. Sean |

Great idea Sean, Thanks I will - perhaps not to late on this one BTW, I can get access to the back side easy enough. After a brief business trip, I got back on the Chevy. Well.....I really don't like tiny letters! Just wrapped up the tailgate, Started the dash, it will have back lit gauges. Started the interior door panels. Its so humid here that it fogged up the second I went outside, which is the reason for the foggy pictures. |

Well, some of the final details, side marker lights were a little small for my fat fingers, but the'll work. Side view mirrors were a mish-mash of some Tamiya Hilux mirrors, I cut off the mount and made my own. Again my fat fingers made it more difficult then I thought it would. They will work. Have a shot of the chassis, nothing special, just mounted the electronics so I could get the body to sit on the frame. [ |
