mtfit's truck that Drew posted is one of my favorites from Carlisle.

70EB's looks good also.

70EB's truck is one of my favorites. Its a mean looking truck. The black rims really set it off. I can't believe how good a rattle can paint job can look.

Matte Black? Is that the same as flat black? How would that look against Mettalic paint?

302, Nice rig, what size lift and tires? What color is that?

3 1/2" lift and 32" tires. Not sure of the color. I bought it that way.

I like the lift but will go with 35" tires once these are worn.

Broncitis - that rig is very nice.

Lights under your rig - genius!

Drew, what are those side markers off of?

 

[Broncitis]

Just to clarify, the rig is not mine, but one I built a little over a year ago for Mtfit who is also on this forum. Thanks for the compliments, Bill and I were both very happy with how it turned out.

The side markers are repros for a 69 Mustang. I choose these becase they fit the existing holes but are smaller overall size (just need to drill new mounting holes a bit closer) and have clear lenses. I like adapting FoMoCo parts and more specifically retro FoMoCo when I can. I then installed some LED bulb like are also installed in the tail, reverse, turn, license plate, glove box and dash locations.

The front and rear rock lights are just some inexpensive low profile lights I got from Autozone. IMO, LEDs could not match the amount of light I wanted. They light up the rocks very well for a spotter and will provide nice lighting if you'd need to fix a drivesahft or other part on the trail at night (I see from the rear Rock Light pic that that series of photos was taken after Mtfit took delivery and had already gotten all my hard work muddy ).

I also used these same lights for added reverse lights which I made oval cutouts in the face of the rear Protofab bumper for. They looke real nice and are well protected and very bright which helps sinced we also installed the tinted soft top which makes it hard to see at night.

Well broncitis I printed out pics of mtfit's truck to put on my tool box as inspiration. That truck is the closest one I've seen to what I want mine to look like when it is finished. You built a amazing truck and I wish it was mine.

 

[Broncitis]

You built a amazing truck and I wish it was mine.

Yeah, Me too! ;D

Thanks for the compliment. It was hard turning over the keys on that rig.

Ya, I'm pretty sure mtfit's EB makes my Top 5 list. It's beautifully made but still looks super manly.

 

[tasker]

It's mostly gray...;D

 

[texastreasures]

Gray for now

Im getting so used to the Grey Ive considered painting it silver
Saw a very nice dark Charcoal Grey on a brand new GT Mustang at FORD the other day.
