Thank you, I hope to keep working on it every chance I get. It sure doesn't look like the same truck I towed home a month ago.

I have waxed the drivers side of it and it does seem to shine but needs a lot more elbow grease. Not quite sure what I want to do with the paint yet. For now I want to keep polishing on it, replace front bumper, grill, reupholster seats as close as I can back to original and clean up all the wiring that the original owner added numerous aftermarket crap. I want to take it to a few local car shows and Dino's Pre-Show Get Down before I do anything surprising to it.

I actually gave up and was scrambling to get down to Wickenburg, Arizona when it was posted on craigslist to get a crack at purchasing this.
