Putting Primer on My truck Today

I got started with the primer today. Took a break from the heat to post a pic. It is really hot again today so I put up a little shade to help out. It's good to see the old truck one color, even if it is primer. I'll post a couple more later today sometime. Thanks for looking. Randy

Re: Putting Primer on My truck Today

i've always felt that one color, no matter what color really makes a truck look complete.

and i like the yellow primer! my dads friend has a prostreet mustang in that color and it stands out nicely from the crowd

Re: Putting Primer on My truck Today

Done for the day! I need A/C whew. It looks ok. The next week or so I'm going to put new window motors in, and flip the rear end. Without the bumper, the tailgate, and my old tool box it's really sitting high in the back. Then off to my buddy's paint booth for color. Took it for a spin around the block, after 2 months in the garage that was the best part. And thanks for the compliments.

Going with the bed liner. This is my daily driver and I use it. Any recommendations on what to use?

Re: Putting Primer on My truck Today

Those are American 200S wheels. Those on my truck are vintage 70's era but they still make them. I'm pretty sure they make an 18".
