Even on the firewall there appears to be a large paint chip with gray behind it?
Again, could just be the pics, I just can't tell, but almost every "out west" truck ever posted with original paint has some kind of paint wear through somewhere where the original red oxide or black primer is showing. This truck is so clean and straight (even with the damage) she deserves a clean repaint, especially if it's not original  |
I agree with the repaint. At his point I think a total repaint is in order. I did not want to do that.I have three other trucks with original paint, and I like that. Good repaints cost $$$.
