SEMA would be awesome. A new baby girl and a new house says that's not in the cards for a bit. Though Conroe might not be too bad. My wife has family south of Houston and I some friends in The Woodlands just a bit south of Conroe.

So I made the trek to Ft Collins Saturday afternoon. Took about 7 hours with the snowstorm and the ski traffic.

Got to my buddies and had dinner and went to bed.

Got up Easter Sunday and headed to the shop and started tearing the truck down.

It was a long ass day, but me and the guy that was doing the wiring helped me get it done in a day.

Yippie.

Gotta get that engine out now.

Loaded and ready to head home.

Got it home and here comes the ******* rain!

Headed to Cali this weekend to drop it off at the powdercoater. The body is at the painter. Gotta get the interior done and get my subs and s*** ordered.

Its getting real folks :thumbs up

Nice! You make it look too easy. So are you switching up wheels or are those just to move it around?

Im working with a few wheel companies to hopefully pull off a set of one off wheels.

This truck is pretty simple really, and I've had my hands all over it already lol.

Cannot wait to see whats to come from this..

 

[mymmeryloss]

Body is at paint. Still not 100% on a powdercoat color but gonna have them send me a few samples.

s*** just got real!!!

 

[AzteCypher]

Waiting.... waiting... waiting.... are they done yet?

Frame is torn down.

And an ig screenshot of my new harness for the AEM infinity.

Clear powdercoat the frame!

Changed direction with the ECU I see. Looks like you went with Chris's to-of-the-line harness options.

That was the plan, but its too rusty and whatnot so I have to choose a color so they can media blast it.

Yeah went with the infinity. Sent them my old harness to repin it and they are making me a new one instead haha.

I won't lie, I've been eyeing Haltech's new Elite series, but at this point I've already changed ECU's once (Sprint RE -> PS1000) and I haven't even gotten the car running yet. I don't know too many people running the AEM Infinity so I'm curious how everything will go.

 

[mymmeryloss]

Bodywork has begun

Can't you media blast it then clear coat it?

 

[mymmeryloss]

Can't you media blast it then clear coat it?

Yeah but it will make it look primer gray. So im just going to go with a color instead.

 

[AzteCypher]

Ah, so you do lose the burned metal effect. Bummer...

 

[mymmeryloss]

Exactly. Yeah i was heartbroken.

 

[Jackie chan]

What about a polished/chrome look?
