Mo' truck pictures!

Friday evening the sun decided to peak out of the clouds for just enough time to pull Thunderpig out of the shop to see it sparkle! I have to say I just wanted to climb in the cab, shut the door and keep drive off into the sunset.. I can't wait for the truck to be finished..

What does Lightning McQueen say in the movie Cars? "Kachow"... Well this is what Thunderpig says.. "KAAAAACHOW!!"

The gap between the bed and the cab has been tightened.. It looks a lot better now.

You can see the ghost flames really well in this shot.

We added a tachometer next to the gauge cluster.. I wanna know when I'm red lining Thunderpig! ;-)

The fenders align really well with the back of the roll pan.. Now we just need to finish the passenger side of the bed walls and the inner wheel wells and the bed will be ready to paint!

Thats one sexy look'n truck!

Here is the passenger side of the truck.. Just a little more work on the bed sides to do.

Here is Eric showing me how they knock down the edges on the flames when they polish the truck. We have three layers of flames on the truck which means that the pain layers tend to stack up on top of eachother.. You can actually see the edge of the flames.. Here Eric is sanding the door with a 1000 grit sandpaper block.

Next up is the polishing.. this heats up the paint so that everything smooths out.

And there you have it! Though its hard to see in the pictures, the door looks smooth and shiny like new!
