I think that truck is so cool.....

I would have never thought in a million years how cool Cragars look on our trucks. I'm looking for a cheap set right now.

Truck has been painted once. Along time ago. I did paint tailgate, rockers, front lower fender patch panels with a SPRAYCAN.:metal::metal::metal:

I wanted to clean up my truck the best I could with out getting out of control. Several good scrubbings with out waxing it.

Hope this helps.

Washed the truck up. Going to the Nostalgia Drags this Sunday should be fun.


Was reading the DROPMEMBER Thread and realized my avatar looked different. "The Pusher" won the 2011 March TOTM.

Hey Jeff, it was great finally meeting you and seeing the truck in person :metal: it was a great weekend for the Good Guys show. Wish I could have gone on Saturday and met some of the others from the site that were there.

Your truck is truly a great ride and it's cool that you are able to put the miles on it like you did. :metal:

i give you props for 2 reasons:

1) it's hard to do that knowing you have a nice set of rear tires

2)it takes some bal*s to do that in (my perception) a nice neighborhood

HEDMAN HEADERS, 2 1/4 Dual exhaust, Dual 2-chamber flowmasters, Exhaust dumps about 18 inches after the cab. towards the front of the rear tires, Love how the exhaust blows the tire smoke out from rear Hurst cheaters!:metal::metal::metal:
