Here's some of mine in the process. Just added a six inch lift with 35" tires. Removed the bumpers and grill for satin black paint. Now I have the body almost ready for black paint. Decals are all made. I originally had the made like the concept truck but I had some more made like the factory 79-80 macho. The words are clumped together instead of space out.

I love to see a late model one with the earlier Macho decals, like this '78. I like the way the decal runs along the lower part and around the wheel wells on the earlier one.

Can't wait to shoot the black today. I'll install the decals this weekend. I've Got to get some satin black pin stripping. Im trying to deside how to do the hood black out. I'll get to that later. Probably do it similar to the new 2500's powerwagon. Future upgrades include Hidden front winch in bumper Powerwagon seat covers New tailgate with out the ram head resessed area. I want the large ram letters 2500 front bumper, grill and hood Spare tire bed mount Power side steps Muffler delete or flow master 40 muffler On board air compressor Rally functional hood K&n cold air intake Rear slider window Macho short bed rollbar

I like the look of the 78 Macho. I copied it but have yet to add the stripes. Very cool. That's going to look great with the stripes.

A factory short bed macho roll bar might look cool in it. Nice work! Yeah, I think the roll bar would be a really nice touch. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the hood...

Thanks guys. I have to tell you it was a weird feeling painting a new truck. Red decals, I was going to do stencils. I tried the new style powerwagon decals and I really did not like them. So off they came.

Btw, I wish we had that kind of fall scenery in boring Florida. Beautiful background too.
