Just when I thought I came up with the coolest idea, i bought the parts i needed, asked my friends what they thought about it (said it was a dumb idea but i am going to do it anyway like always), asked a few technical questions on here without mentioning what i wanted to do, just getting ready to take my bed off and get a new minitruckin in the mail, sure enougfh on page 84-85 an s-10 with dualie flares. I am pissed. Props to the owner though it looks good, but kinda disapointed to see someone do it before me. Who else has this problem?

i seen a dime converted to a dually like when i was 10, which would have been around 1990.. so sorry to burst your bubble, but it has been thought of way long time ago... good idea thought trying to be a first, but you need to be alot more creative than that to be the first to do anything in this scene... I think everythinghas been now done now that i have seen a F-250 front end on a dime....

yea its tough, cuz you get a cool idea and haven't seen it, but then to have the cashflow to follow through with that idea and have a high quality truck so it gets seen is tough.

what really sucks is to be the first to do something and not get credit for it , i was the first to have air on a 02 ram quad and the guys from autocore got theres in truckn and they said it was the first but mine had air months before they did the black one

Derek, don't let that discourage you. Do what you had in mind, but add your flavor to the project. Good luck!

^^^What ScojoDak said, dont let it discourage u man...it is so hard to be original these days. The threshold is higher than its ever been b4. Stay w/ it and it will turn out fine, just the way u wanted it...who cares if somebody else has it.

that happens all the time. i have been working on my frame for over 2 years now and i just had this guy over who asked me if i was copying mike alexanders frame. i kindly told him no and informed him that i have been working on mine since before mikes truck was an idea. anyway dont worry about it to each his own and good luck on the completed project. later beau
