We are close to production (now taking orders in fact) on the 2008 Mr. Norm Hemi Ram Super Truck you all saw the concept for at the Sony booth during SEMA. As part of the program you can choose the body style and paint scheme for you truck. Build the '08 Mr. Norm's HEMI Ram Super Truck Your Way! (http://www.showyourauto.com/am/listings/l0210.html)

We still need to order 100 trucks for upfit, so the poll question is, "If you were to buy a Mr. Norm's Super Truck, would you buy a regular cab or extra cab, 2x4, blue with black stripes, blue with white stripes, or silver with black stripes. All of them with be short wheel base, short beds. Like my sweet home Chicago, vote early and often! Feel free to reply, let me know if you have any questions or nit picks about the truck.

I appreciate the help :lateral:!

I would vote for the orange with blacked hood! What happened there???? That truck looks awesome as is in the pic!

I had a Lightning until a couple weeks ago and the single cab short bed is great for weight. Makes it a bummer being essentially a two-seater, but that is really the only true "performance" option as it keeps the weight down. I bought a crew cab long bed cuz I really needed a tow vehicle, but miss the driving performance of the Lightning :)

The color is a custom deal. I wish we could have used it, but we had to stick to the factory palette. Gone are the days of "999" color codes. I remember when you get a batch as small as 10 cars factory painted any color you wanted. We want to keep this reachable to regular guy. :captain:
