I am almost done with the transformation of big red. I just put a new motor in it from Powertrain Products Inc. It was 2499 with 4 yr unlimited mile warranty. Runs better than ever. I also just had my hood painted by maaco. They ended up having to paint it twice because the colors werent even close the first time. But now it is as good as its going to get. I also just ordered the rs9000xl's from rancho, should be here by the end of the week. Let me know what you guys think. Should i add some tow mirrors? or a brush guard?

Nice looking truck man. How much did Maaco charge you if you don't mind me asking? One small suggestion would be to get some Lightning headlights and corners and paint your lower valence, bed caps and rear window trim

 

i like it how it is leave it!

 

Looks really good

 

Some towing mirrors would look good on your truck.....

 

Very nice looking truck!

 

Looks Great!

 

needs real headlights and real step bars or none at all.

 

Looks great! I wouldn't, I'd leave the 'sport' look.

 

Just needs depo clear fogs and then call her good.

 

Hope those pics were from their first paint job that you said didnt match, cause that hood is off color.
Nice truck

 

Don't forget tow hooks! ...for all those stuck Chevys, of course.

 

i vot for some different wheels and shell be set. really good looking truck BTW

 

Thanks everyone. The Maaco paint job on the hood cost 250. I really don't want to change my headlights because they were 450 lol and they are the brightest lights I have ever seen. I do think I'm going to look for wider wheels. And maybe some tow mirrors as well. I don't know. :Beers:

 

those pics were from before the repaint job. here are pics of the 2nd time they painted it. they told me that they cant get it any closer
