    I'll take a shot. I could draw it, but I'm lazy, plus the pictures are much better...

    The time is drawing near.

    If you want to go for the $50.00 then I would start sending me your ideas. It's going faster then I thought it would.

    The end is in site...

    The end is in site, so whip something together and get it to me. Foe 10 minutes of your time to draw something up can be worth $50 bucks to you. That would be $300 per hour if you were getting paid that way. The body should be finished near the end of the week. Then it's off to the fiber glass guys to make the molds. Then it's up to me for the carbon fiber or glass work, how ever I go. Carbon will be more cash but it will be thin. Around 1/4 inch. Then the paint becomes easy. Just the cab and cage. It's around $65 per yard and would take 2 layers.
    This picture was from last week.

    Now you can see the shape of the hood. I'm going to keep it some what square like the truck was back in 1980. If I was to make is nice and round then it would look like the new style that is used today. The hard part is keeping the small curve along the top of the fenders.

    The lines of the bed side.

    Here is a video of the lines on the bed sides. I have the stock lines fade into the flared sides.

Who wouldn't want $50.00 to spend on there truck. Need 2 More drawings at least. Otherwise I will be forced to hire someone outside the club.

    Was reading this thread hoping to see the end result, but I guess I can still get in on the draw.
    Are these the only colors that can be used? I'm guessing no graphics or tight details, just an aggressive stripe pattern?
    I'm sure I could spend $50 at Orielys pretty easy on my new/old truck.

    Sorry carbon fiber was not used. I would have added on about $6000 more to the body. I'll try to get the body photos up ASAP. The only carbon to be used will be for the air intake to the radiator. But that may change due to just the complexity of the parts. Well see how the fiberglass pre-fitting goes. The color scheme is totally up to you. It will be a graphic car wrap with contingency sticker lay out, all the way down to the class numbers and window nets. I got distracted on cleaning up the radio station for you guys. Just look at the top of the page for MMD5 Radio. Makes for nice surfing and posting. I'll take some Pict's, tonight of where it's at.

    As for tight graphics yes.... It will be computer generated so water marks are do able. Just applied on to the truck. No paint just one big sticker. Easy to fix or replace.

    Cool, I got a hood just about done using only red yellow and blue, actually don't look that bad so I might keep that scheme going for the rest of the truck, but nice to know I can do more than 3 colors.

    needed a white truck to paint over, so used mine. Need some type of graphic near the door to tie the gradient together, but my brain is about dust, so will play more tomorrow after work.

    One thing I should have said is that the main sponsor gets the hood and doors. The logo can be found at the bottom of the page. On Site Concrete. Thats where the money comes from for the project. Of course Mightyram50.net will be on it as well. But all that will be figured out in time. I just need the main paint graphics. Once I get the body mounted I'll get some pictures put up. Then we can get to down to business. The only main parts needed now is the springs. You should be able to open the PDF files in the first post and in port them to the picture software you are using.

    So far I have had only 1 real entry. (Who ever it was that sent me the drawings please send me a PM as the computer I had your information on crashed and it was lost.)
    But it's time to update the .PDF files on the server that show the body lines better.
    I can see the end of the tunnel.

    OK so I was a little off on my time frame. (Only a year or so) Well the body and paint guy is coming over this Saturday 4-28-12 to give me the price to do the final body work and prep it for paint. I had been thinking about using a body wrap but that may change, or maybe not. Who knows at this point. But I did send some parts out to the power coater, just some handles (black), jack mount (blue), fuel filler and tank strap (red). A friend of mine is going to come over and put in his ideas. Then I have the body wrap guys that want to get in on it.
    So if you have any ideas, let's see it.
    All I have left is carbon fiber that does not get paint, a cup holder, and the gun rack. From there it's time to get the weight on it. Measure the suspension for the springs, dissemble, send out for powder and paint. Re-assemble in reverse order, fire and drive it.

    Body is mounted and fitted.
