Default New paint job complete.

Here are some photos from today. Took her out to get fueled up, and went to Home Depot to get some ****.

Got my first "jesus that truck sounds good" at the gas station. He walked all around it and said it looked good. Felt good.

That's next on the agenda.

I have finished the motor, and exterior. So now it's time to get the Paxton Novi 2000 Supercharger installed, and then work on the interior.

Interior will have custom seats, from an upholstery shop here with r/t embroidery. Black leather with dark blue accents, already have some custom sun visors installed that have blue "Mopar Performance" embroidered on them.

Will be redoing the carpet, door inserts, and a few accents on the dash. Other that that it will stay stock.

Yeah, it's been awhile. I posted in my orginal thread when I got the truck. So people can see where it started and how it ended up.

This thread is where all the information is, and photos too. I slacked off on all the other sites.

One thing I will be changing is the front bumper. Notice in my sig image the bumper has no gap between the grill and bumper, in the images I posted the bumper is lower. I will have to adjust the bumper up a tad to fill that gap. Other than that, that's the only thing I will be changing.

I deleted the A/C Since then. So it's a lot cleaner now, and I'll be installing this bad boy soon. (see image below) I got most of the parts already, just need injectors, a 2 bar map, and some tunes. I'm looking for close to 450-500 rwhp after the tune and boost.








A/C Delete
