    Our minds work alike...I would love to do a 40's vintage style pinup girl on the side, tasteful yet daring, but I've told my bride of 24 years that she can consider this one hers...we may end up with a small rose on it somewhere instead of my pinup. I even suggested she could model for the pinup, but she didn't jump at that opportunity...

    Maybe a takeoff on "Rosie the Riveter"? Rosie.png
    The truck looks fantastic, especially under that bright blue high plains sky!

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    HA! I hadn't even though of her...that would be pretty neat!

    Here's a couple pics of the lastest addition...step plates, to try to protect the running board paint a bit. Got a cheap $29/set casting, unpolished, and fiddled with it a bit, powdercoated the background and polished the raised lettering. I think it adds without coming across as being "loaded with too many bells and whistles"...



    Guess I could have "rivetet" it on...
