That is AWESOMEOo. . Now theres an idea for paint on a resto project i want to start sometime in the near future.....

Thanks Gary. I'm really happy with the paint. Theres only a few spots that I need to buff. Other than that, I'm kinda proud of myself. I haven't painted a vehicle since 2002 & I've still got it. :-laf You know what I mean, not being cocky or anything.

I was surprised that there isn't much dust, guess the jumper cables from my body to a ground rod I pounded into the fllor worked. :-laf

I really don't want to know where yu attached it on your body!!!!!! :{

:-laf You have a warped little mind there Kenny. I was referring to "truck body", right under the cab.

 

[Cummins724]

Got it buffed, harnesses, glass, switches, wiper assembly, cowl cover are on. I also painted my hinges, rad support bracket.

No problem, i like seeing these DIY projects. I wish i had a place to paint, the little car that occupies our driveway needs paint real bad:{:-laf

So when can I drop off my truck? I don't even want a color change, just a repaint? I'm in Jersey so I'm not that far.....

Looks amazing, keep up the nice work.

I painted cars for a while & in 2002, I swore I was done with it. Now I paint my truck & already have 3 of my buddies begging me to paint there vehicles. I guess you can drop it off this summer... . looks like I'll have to go another round. :-laf

you do realize that once it's done, everytime you pull into a parking lot you'll be looking for a spot a mile away where there are no cars around to ding you, or worse, someone stealing it. the fun of owning a vehicle like that
