I know this one has been done countless times, but I wanted to do my own. All changes to the vehicle are noted:
The paint is a similar shade to Plum Crazy. The grille has no custom chrome..it's just the radiator placed inside the grille shell (very common in this sort of car). The pin-striping has been removed. The valve covers, air cleaner, fuel tank, and header pipes have been anodized. The spark plug wires have been replaced with higher-grade wires, in yellow. The rims have been replaced. The interior and chassis are done in a violet shade. Body chrome, such as bed rails and door handles, have been anodized.
Some aspects of the vehicle don't look changed (headlight and taillight shrouds, some interior areas). I don't know why, as they were changed on the skin. The skin is still editable, so if anyone knows how to correct the problems, let me know. I may also change the tire tread later, and add a few graphics changes, but this one works as it is.
Enjoy her!!
UPDATE: I know it didn't take long to change it, but here it is. Changes include:
Body chrome has been blackened. Fuel tank, chassis, headlight, and taillight bezels have been blackened. The rims have been changed (they fit better, but still look a bit odd). redline tires have been applied. A wood bed floor has been added. An emblem has been placed on the steering wheel.
Sorry for any inconvenience. If you download this one, it will NOT replace the old one.
