When Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 well thats all for now all that left to do for the body drop now is cut off the front crossmember and drop it 3 inches, take the sawzall to the sides of the cab floor drop the cab floor 3 inches and weld the mother up! then its on to more modifications -installation of solenoids for the doors -shaving the driverside handle (ive been lazy) -installing a 6 inch stepnotch -shave the cowl panel -reroute a bunch of wires -shave the cab seam under the rear window -set up the soleniods for the bags -make a rear crossmember for the bags -and pull the engine to paint the engine bay after that the shits gonna get top secret style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
When Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 Originally posted by vinyl junkie that's what i was wondering about... i thought you were actually cutting all that space out and shortening the cab... for some reason rust repair never occuered to me... well yes im shortening the cab in a way but from the outside you wont see a difference, but inside i will have 3 inches less headroom it will become more clear as i post more pictures in the future hopefully i wont lag this time :D haha rust sucks! im proud to say that i dont have one bit of rust on this beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinyl junkie Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 congratulations when, you now have me utterly confused... so, moving onto a different topic concerning your truck, the new hot rod magazine has a small little blurb about a damn sexy hidden brake light (or any other kind of light) hidden under the paint... totally invisible until the light is lit, then it's totally visible...� Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinyl junkie Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 once i read about it, it seemed so obvious, but it never occured to me before... the little thing in hot rod talks about using the same idea for fiber optics... that could be damn hot, as long as it's not over done...� Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 okay i couldnt find the other truck the lights i posted could have been painted over but werent i knew of another truck that had those but painted over but alas i cant find any damn pictures of it!

vinyl junkie Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 the one i saw, it wasn't just painted over, but first the actual lense was sanded flush with the body, then the first layers of paint were feathered onto the lense, then the final layer went over the light... the final effect was real subtle, and produced more of a glow than regular lights, but was still bright enough to be seen... also, on a related note, man do i hate led lights on cars... especially old cars... i could give 2 shits about how much brighter they are, i think they are way ugly...

Zack Morris Posted September 5, 2002 Share Posted September 5, 2002 well the girl that was letting me use her backside for a pin cushion just left town....boo....I am going to orlando in a few months to stay a week or two with her. I am looking forward to it since she was cool as shit. on a side note I got a promosion at word I am now an advisor to the new reps and I got a 5% pay raise on my commission I am now making 20% so I have doubled my starting pay my dashlights are now out on my car...in a little bit I am going to go up to the store and buy some small blue LED's to put in and wire to a remote switch so that way I can see my instrument panel until I get the money to have my entire dash taken out just to replace a lightbulb. I am also thinking of buying a set of 12's for my trunk and a nice amo...anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
