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...

[Sick5]

Well I'm glad u steady working on the truck. Keep us posted on the progress and remember to give us pictures

[BadaSs_Cal]

ok... I started to get the itch again yesterday.. you guys with your "lifetime" projects know what Im talking about.. I dont want to spoil the surprise too much.. but LFD project Low buck, and project No buck got me inspired all over again.. More coming soon.

[Tinkermc]

will keep watching to see how that paint does

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.
