392heminut Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 @98Z5VMy apologies for taking so long to get these up Tom! This is the AR with the tiger stripe cerakote that Tom has been referring to, I was blown away when he gave this thing back to me. My wife said she hadn't seen that big of smile on my face since the last time she...well maybe I shouldn't go there! Anyway, this thing is outstanding! A huge thank you to you brother!

392heminut Posted December 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 BTW, this gun looked so awesome I had to go buy a new truck to put it in after I got it back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) @392heminut, HELL YEAH, BROTHER!!! I still can't believe I did that whole gun, and didn't take a damn picture... Sorry for costing you a new truck, brother... Edited December 9, 2019 by 98Z5V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent some pics to my son Josh and he said "Well, at least it doesn't look like a city truck now!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

392heminut Posted December 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 You guys would have to see that scope up close to see the work Tom put into masking that thing, it's amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belt Fed Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 I want that truck. Did those decals come on it or they aftermarket add ons, I like em. I want some for mine. but damn i'd have to wash it then.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted December 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 No, I sourced them on Ebay and then put them on myself. I've done an install before (hockey stick stripes on my 70 Cuda) so I'm familiar with the process. I had to do something about all that white!

DNP Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 It may take some time to get the parts back, but it looks like it’s worth it in the end. Nicely done 98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 I had Larry's gun for a year, from the time I met up with him and picked it up... It was one thing after another with me, and I kept putting it off. Hell, I had it over a year, no joke. I just went from one personal issue to another, back to back, and just didn't get it done. I had some real-world weather issues, last winter in AZ, and the rain just wouldn't stop - if it wasn't actively raining, the humidity sucked, for painting. When I was ready and capable to paint it - the weather told me that it wasn't gonna happen. This was a bad combination of planning on my part, one-thing-after-another on my part, and personal shiit on my part. I knew I had to make this right, by Larry...
