| From Old to New
Decided to change things up and switch out my F-250 body to a Jeep G6 body. So far its turning out pretty good. |

If you don't mind me asking what is the paint that gave you that color? I love that color and have not been able to find anything that is that color.

Very nice colour ;) Did you change the suspension links to suite the medium wheelbase of the G6 or leave the links as per the original Honcho/Jeep long wheelbase? |

Forgot to say that I also sprayed silver behind the copper to make the color pop more. Then sprayed back over that

Would it be possible for you to take a side and top shot so I can see how the body looks with the longer wheelbase?

Great thanks very much. That does not look bad at all and you have the advantage of the longer wheelbase too. where did you get the poison spider decal or mask from? Last edited by mr lee; 04-26-2014 at 03:29 AM. |

Great color. Good choice on the grill; the black looks nice. Are you going to go with a bumper in the rear? |
