Black is Back -- She's All Clean!

While I've let a few recent 'cleaned up' threads slide, I'm going to mirror one down here to show off a little bit myself...

Black is Back - And It's Clean!!

Over 6 hours of work... Enjoy... let me know what you think.

You really shouldn't post pics like that...

...makes me realize how crappy my black truck looks.

Nice job though.

That looks awesome. I ALMOST bought a black FX4 before I got the rig I now drive, but didn't for fear of the scratches the black
would show. If I knew about the little tricks to keep it sharp that
I now know from being a member of this sight, I might have went
for it. The problem is my DRK TOREADOR RED does a great job
of displaying the scratches too....

Looks awesome Rock. I do think I speak for the group though when I say we want to see just ONE pick of your truck after about 20 minutes wallowing in a good mud hole!

In RockPick's defense, I saw his tires get dirty once in some grass.


The truck looks great as usual.

I saw one that would be perfect for you here:vehicle canopy

Seriously though guys.... it has been used as a 'truck' a few times. Mind you, it's only got 7k miles... It's not a total garage queen.

RockPick,

As usual, your truck looks awesome! My only question is how you had it airlifted into that field so that only the bottom of the tires got dirty. (I'm sure a toothbrush was whipped out right after the truck was lifted back out to solid ground to clean out the offending blades too.) Keep up the good work!
