I just realized that I haven't showed a rear picture lately! Looks mean... Alot of people will get used to that view. hehe

 

And the driver's door is underway! Wooo!





The passenger door is getting closer!

 

So its official! The year is 2010 and the Tyclone is now a classic. 25 years and older is considered a classic which means it is now emissions exempt!

 

So the doors are just about ready for paint!





They truck still had a few areas that we found to fix. At this point, its not a 1000 point show car that will win at the next concourse event, but its a pretty darn clean, very unique, and surprisingly quick 1985 Jimmy!

So with the stage we are at now, I think that we'll be seeing color on the truck next week. Unless something drastic pops up... I see blue in my future!

 

I never noticed before that the phoons had those handles. I plan on doing that handle swap too on my blazer once I can find some donor doors. Build is nice, very thorough.

 

I dunno man, everything on that stripe looks great except for at the very front of the hood. The passenger's side stripe looks closer to the edge of the hood.

 

patiently awaiting the completion of this sick looking truck!

 

Well, the doors got blocked and primed AGAIN today. The bodywork is now done on the body. Final block on the doors tomorrow and then I need to jamb them and hopefully paint on Thurs or Fri! Wish me luck! I cant WAIT to see color on the truck!!!
