lookin' good! depending on what size tires you are planning to run, you might want to consider cutting the pinch weld and bending it back on the inside of the fender wells to prevent cutting the tires.

big thanks to Ben Helton at Maaco in hickory ... this truck was pretty much rust free but had a lot of dents and dings and he spent many hours to make sure it was right.

This wasn't a normal Maaco job, there was some extra material used that is available to all Maacos. But most people would pay alot more than the normal price. This thing needed a roof panel in reality but was repaired the right way, Scotts work on the fenders was excellent mounting doors and fitting the strikers was simple, but unbolting and moving the bed was a pain in the arse! But over all this truck looks great and I hope to have my hand in assembly

That is slick, I am gonna need you to paint my hood and grill when the time comes

nice

starting to look really good ...can't wait to see how the front suspension turns out too with the axle moved forward

that would bring it to around a 115 inch wheelbase??

I have already told Brandon when ever its ready to paint, that I'd shoot it

 

[woodkrawler]

WOW!! Looks amazing. I'm so jealous....

I can't wait to have mine done.

Was this a single stage job or base coat/clear coat?

 

[Spence]

Nice choice on the color. All these fancy comanches on here lately make me want a nice one to park alongside my MJ crawler.
