More pics of the high-lift:
I was going for a Harley Davidson edition F-350. But once I put on the first orange coat, the color was not what I was expecting. So I kept going and because I was impatient, forgot not to paint when it's so cold outside and the paint ran.:019: So I let it dry, took it inside and wet sanded it. I like the look of it now, because it looks weather beaten' and I'm just going to get it scratched up anyway on the rocks and stuff. I just might have to buy a seperate body for show.
I might paint one door and the taligate a different color to look like a pick-your-parts truck. I was even thinking of puching a small hole and making it look rusted. Also my 11yr old son is really good at dry brushing so I'm going to let him detail it tomorrow with me. Mostly on the chrome stuff because it's to bling, bling.
Here's the folding mirror mod:
Step one: cut them off. Remove the skinny section from the center of the posts.
Step two: cut four short sections of 1/8 heat shrink tubing, and attach them to the mirror stubs with CA glue.
Now you've got fold-away mirrors!
