The truck is looking great!!

I practically crapped my pants.
Most likely going to have to completely refinish the hood. Possibly fenders too.

A little more than a few scratches, man that sucks.

Really nice work on the rest! Great color combo!! So sorry to see the hood issue and the damage that is heart wrenching.

Thank you very much

I feel like I've lost motivation since the hood incident but I have so much to still do. Fix the paint. Fix the bumpers. Swap the grille. Install the cab and tailgate trim. Repair loose body moldings. Fix short in column and cruise control. Fix transmission leak. Install sway bars. Slosh tubz so I can get the front lower. I'm sure there is more but that gets started.

Yeah it'll be here before you know it. Not sure if it'll be making an appearance or not. I have 2 others that will probably be there.

**TKCR** · 05-29-2017, 07:12 PM

Same here. I still haven't gotten the hood painted or my little mishap (chip & deform ) fixed. Hell, I haven't even had the truck out of the garage since last year

st1 · 07-12-2017, 10:10 PM

we hope to see some progress...

maybe I missed it but did you bag this truck? I am looking for lowering options on my build.

I love the colors on your truck. great choice.

No I did not bag the truck. I'm still contemplating that.

UKNOWME · 09-20-2017, 03:00 PM

My truck sat idle for quite a while. At the last minute I decided I wanted to get it out of storage and take it to @c10sinthepark. I dusted off the cobwebs and gave it a bath. Had the paint chips and scratches from last years incident touched up. Although I had a long checklist of wants before I went, none of those items were going to keep me from making the trip. A group of 4 from Clovis all traveled together and we had a great time. The c10s gathering is just that and is not a show with awards. Although this year the coordinators of the event picked their top 50. To my surprise I was chose to be one of those 50 of some of the nicest trucks around. The event totaled out at 751 trucks. The top 50 were invited to park in the square for the after party. Now that I have returned I have decided it's time to get back to that checklist.

UKNOWME · 09-20-2017, 03:34 PM

Also had the pleasure of meeting Aaron Kaufman

Congrats on the top 50. It is cool that you met Aaron. He seems like a pretty cool guy.

Naught · 09-22-2017, 09:16 AM

Love the truck! I also love the color combo. Is this the same orange as Reyna Brothers? What is the color called?

rvrfoot · 12-19-2017, 01:12 PM

Nice trucks.

I have searched high and low and cannot find the actual color. I will keep looking. I took the picture of the Reyna Bros truck to my local paint store and they mixed it.
