some crazy camera trickery going on here...its not purple laughing1
Its a deep royal blue that looks purple in the pictures for some reason...and it looks way different on the computer vs iphone too, so I dunno what kind of sorcery witch powdercoat Todd put on this chassis
Who cares...its on now! The fun part is next

Chassis is a prismatic powder called illusion royal. The interior panels are silver vien with a clear top coat. The exterior panels are getting painted a toyota color dark grey mica. Here's a swatch of the panel color.

I promise its blue 
We got the chassis unloaded and in the shop on Saturday. Got the motor put in place, the airbumps in their mounts (always a big PITA), rear axle is in, rear shocks are in... this weekend we are going to try and tackle the front axle and get its new mounts tacked on it and cycled to make sure it all clears - then hopefully get the trans and tcase in place as well. So far, so good!

Got the rest of the drivetrain in this past weekend along with starting to bolt on some of the other major accessories.
Slung the dash in there too so we could start to see how things were laying out and really looking with the interior color choice
Had a little bit easier of a day with the 14bolt this time, after its all said and done with shock mounts and all, it looks like we only lost about a 1/4" of uptravel which is awesome. Still have yet to cycle it fully so we arent totally sure about the driveshaft bind at full droop yet (built with a HP60 but now using a LP14 front), but can fix that when we cross that bridge if need be. We might get away with it like it is.
Todd chose the skin color (tested it on the fuel cell) and I think its going to look good - there is still a little camera trickery going on here, the grey is a little lighter in person
Started to get the interior panels going, but ran out of time so we will get after that next weekend
The garage guard approves

Is this the color Todd picked for the chassis?
