Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
Thank you so much for the excellent ideas from your build. I love some of the little custom touches you did. I also love it that this truck isnt a trailer queen, so stop being so modest, that truck rocks and I hope my truck turns out half as nice. I work on my truck every night and then before I go to bed I get on the computer to see what you have posted next, can't go to sleep till I see what you have posted so that I can come up with mods to mine based on what you have done. think I'll do like you have done and post my build after I finish it.

OK on with todays post.
Inside of dash painted. The dash was painted to match the Ultra-leather in the interior. Paint shop mixed paint, then I had them add 50% flattening agent to the paint. In makes it real thin, just add hardner and spray. Put on about 4 or 5 light coats. Easy to keep clean. |
