Re: Project "Sweet Marie" Conception 2-19-2011
Its from TCP. Found them on ebay... I did some looking around and they seem to have ok feedback... Good enough paint for my DD.. Well see, if it turns out well Ill probably post a thread in the FAQ.. doesnt seem anyone around here as done that yet for such a popular paint...

Re: Project "Sweet Marie" Conception 2-19-2011
Haven't updated in awhile, but truck pretty much sits as it was.
Life sure did change, I started a small 4 acre boat and project storage for do it yourselfer guys like me to work on their projects. And picked up this little beauty in a trade. Runs alright. 351e V6. 4 speed. Fun to drive. ![]() Then over 3 days cleaned it up real quick. Used TCP single stage Urethane. Looks good enough for a DD. Lots of orange peel, a few drips. Im a rookie, what can I say. ![]() ![]()
