That thing is beautiful! - it even looks like it might fit in the garage!

Any chance you can just spiral brush the fenders and clearcoat them? :-B

Man I like this rig! You've done a great job, Smurf! :beer:
I agree with Rick, swirl the and then clear. That would be a KOOL look. :kewl:


BBQ is just smoke and beers!
Usually more beers than smoke.

Trying to find a place for a spare tire that would look nice and not be in the way. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Been thinking about it but ??

I went back and looked over the pics and the only place I can figure out is standing up right in front of the toolbox directly over the drawbar ... you'd be looking at it in your inside mirror all the time....
