I've been wanting a Harley truck for a while and jumped on one with a blown motor a few months back.
It was the 100th anniversary silver and black edition with 82K on it.
We ordered an engine from Promar with forged rods and pistons and had our friends at Kelley Performance and DTP swap it out for us.
Once the truck was running again, we stripped it down, removing the bed, all handles, moldings, mirrors, bumpers and stripes.
With an autobody & paint back ground I wanted this to look amazing.
We did a brushed aluminum looking silver stripe and cleared the truck.
Sanded it again and had our painter Chris Murray add some Tru Flames to the bottom of the truck and cleared again.
To get that glass look and bury the stripes we sanded and cleared it one last time.
Sand 3 more times with 2000, 3000 and 4000 add 3 different buffing compounds and you get glass.
Other mods are:
Steel Cowl Hood
Painted grille
Smoothed and painted tail gate handle
Blacked out side markers
Tinted tail lights
Newer Harley emblem to the bed
Soon to be painted bed rail caps.
"SUPERCHARGED HARLEY - DAVIDSON 1903-2003 100 YEARS" Custom painted on the hood cowl. Stencil made by Achnor-room.com
Custom Redline Tuning hood lifter kit. The steel hood is super heavy and stock shocks wouldn't hold it for nothing. Redlines FTW!
The truck had headers on it already, but we need to thank the gang at Metco Motorsports for the care package. :rockon:
Metco 6 lb lower pulley
Metco 2.9 upper S/C pulley
Metco Aux double bearing 100mm idler
Metco double bearing 90mm idler
Metco steering clunk washers
We also had local friend Brandon Rudge port the blower, plenum and throttle body :beer:
Tuning will be done next week with SCT of course and Brent Hughes of Dyno Tuned Performance along with some "new" intake testing ;-)
Add a JLT CAI and Separator and the engines done.
It has a Flowmaster 40 series on it and it's awful loud, so it's off to the exhaust shop in the morning for a 70 series and twin pipes to exit behind the passenger rear wheel.
I think that's about it, I'll keep posting here as we progress,
Enjoy
