Re: Just some pinstriping pics
Nice work, you have to have a steady hand for that.

Re: Just some pinstriping pics
Thanks! I am really happy with it. The guy that did the stripes has been pinstriping for 38 years. He's amazing, his name is Tom VanNortwick.

Re: Just some pinstriping pics
And here is a drive by in front of my house. I hadn't seen it rolling since I lowered it so I had Stacey drive it by while I recorded from the driveway.

. Awesome videos - thanks for sharing! Truck really turned out great...the roll-by video showed it off good! What do you have planned for a rear bumper? Digging that retro looking front plate too. . .

Thanks for the kind words. I have a chrome sport bumper on the way, hoping to get it next week.

I have had those wheels in storage for about 12 years. I originally bought them for a '92 Silverado I had. When I got the '79 a few months back I was happy to be able to put them back to use. They are a very rare design though, they were only sold through one vendor - and they went under years ago. It makes them pretty rare, I have only seen two other sets on the internet. You can't buy them from Boyds. The design is called 'Scorpio'. I didn't love them on the OBS, but I think they look GREAT on the squarebody. |

Re: Just some pinstriping pics
Here are the wheels. I polished them up after 12 years of dust and bug poop had collected on them.

. Just did some quick online research. Hadn't heard of him before, but have always appreciated a good pin stripper. . . Quote:
. Awesome backstory on the wheels - I also agree that they look GREAT on the C10 too! They cleaned up really well too - good thing you kept them for the past 12 years! You're not kidding, those seem like a very limited (rare) Boyd model. Saw this link online after you mentioned the name of them: http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f14/bo...=1467737249788 . .
