20 footer....
The truck looks atleast half decent now from 20 ft. since I got the outside all one color !!! Rustoleums Rusty Metal Primer spray bomb'd .... I figure it'll be that color for couple years till' I collect all the sheetmetal I need and go into that phase of the build up...

Re: 20 footer....
you do anything special to the grill for the paint to stick? just sand and prime?

It must have smelt a lot like raw fish while it was drying.

Re: 20 footer....
I agree, we're going to need some better pics than that. Looks like you've got bucket seats?

Re: 20 footer....
Don't forget that your primer will absorb moisture, but you already knew that.

Re: 20 footer....
i dont think thats a 20footer, i think it looks pretty good myself and the blackedout grill just adds that much more to it

Re: 20 footer....
Thanks for all the compliments guys !!! Trust me though .. the crappy camera makes the truck look better than it is ..... yesterday I started to tape off where I'm gonna cut the bed sides out to replace , did a little sheetmetal patching on the floor and started to fill in the trim holes (and extra PO holes) on driverside fender and cab.....
