That rig IS similar mine, I think thats Loomis' 60. My mates showed pics of every chopped 60 they found when I started mine. That is a nice rig
Amazing that 2 dudes can build a truck 600 miles apart and have the cabs nearly identical. I think thats cool
If I dont go with the silver, I will probably go pink, only for the wow (or that dude must be crazy, wierd, different) factor

You are right about that, I will get looked at funny, but at least i will be getting looked at. LOL. Lavender......................nah
yellow with pink wheels, hmmmm pity my wheels, tray, and barwork is blue, otherwise it might have got a run
Everyone will have to wait and see what colour it turns out................I still have no idea

Paint has been bought, It is in my 2 hands right now, there will be colour on my rig shortly. I am not going overboard with the body work but I am expecting good results.
I will post up some progress shots shortly, need to do some more rubbing first
Cheers

paint is on, at least on the body, I have paint all over me. Looks ok too, needs a couple of repairs but, I like it. Look for the finished product in ROTW. Hope secrets can be kept.

Well, I have my rig up as a ROTW so I guess I can post some pictures of it to this thread, so here goes
in the 2 months I mentioned earlier i managed to get all of the hanging panels (doors, guards, bonnet, and valance) in primer ready for paint
here is the final rub down ready for paint later that night
23 March 08
rubbing down with my daughter
paint being applied
new paint, still wet, straight off the gun
this is what it looked like the next day (taken with my phone)
and one with my kids
4 April 08
My number 1 helper
Paint going down on the other panels
which brings me to the ROTW photos
cab all put together, tray on, with 36 inch tyres
enjoy
