  Owner Comments

  The trucks not nearly as intimidating and complicated as it looks. Last year I took the tailgate off and removed that ugly plastic piece and sanded it down. Bought a Sharpe HVLP spray gun, 60 gallon compressor, and some other paint goodies, and tried my first painting experience. Turned out great! thats when I got the great idea Id re-paint my truck and put stripes on it. The work hasn't stopped since!!!!These pics are a couple garage scenes and a couple of what it looks like today as Im getting parts in the mail to keep updating it. I hope to have it pretty well squared away by the end of the summer so that I can just do the little tinkering with it instead of this major body and eng mods.
