Re: finally,going to paint

i guess i won't make a new thread afterall...
MY TRUCK IS READY FOR PAINT! been doing body work since last june. rust repair lasted til about fall and then bodywork... it sucked! and then it got cold so i built the engine, and now it's ready for paint after i finished the bodywork today. i sanded my last spot, got a brush to wipe off the dust, stood up, threw the brush on the ground, and went inside for a mountain dew.
