Awesome! Cant wait to see it finished. What mods do you have to do to get the dub city wheels to fit? Who makes the paint?

Thanks everyone!!!

The paint is Tetors Sapphire Blue Metal Flake (can) and all I did to the wheels was trim the back center post down even with the wheel. Next will be the interior. I'm thinking a flat gray, maybe just a primer gray.

Well here ya go........interior painted (primer) and installed not complete but in there. I used primer because I wanted that flat finish and it worked . This picture is more true to real color. This picture was taken inside under flouresent bulbs I'll take more pictures outside tomorrow.

enjoy

That's bad ass!! I really like the color. And do you have any close up pics of the primered interior...it sounds pretty sweet and interesting.

Now that's a truck! We need more of these slammed beauties around here. Good idea using the Dub City wheels.

Re: In-progress Chevy Silverado ext. Cab

Not to critisize, but the passenger seat isn;t assambled well, perhaps you could do something about it?

Re: Re: Re: In-progress Chevy Silverado ext. Cab

This will look awesome when you finish it! I'm starting to grow on liking the minitruck scene and by seeing this model I'm going to give it a shot with the same Silverado, see what I can do for a minitruck model! Thanks for sharing this with us, I love it.
