my weekend project..... pics finally!!!!!!

so this past weekend i decided to take my truck down to bare metal and prep and paint her.
i did it the cheapskate way and spent about 80 bucks on materials including pin striping tape, painters tape and paper, paint, and sanding disks.... not bad! i figured about 150 for a rattle can job but i came in way under so i did what any of us would have done...... spent the rest on beer! any how it took me the better of a day and a half to get all the paint off, and doing some minor body work. then i got into painting it, yep good ol' rattle can spray paint!!!! 2 bucks a can at osh!!! and i bought one of those adapters that turns it into a trigger handled sprayer- 3 bucks and worth every cent!!! took my time, sanding between every coat and managed to get 7 coats of paint on her! it came out 100 times better than i could have dreamed! i'm real proud of the scallops and pin striping.... next im gonna paint on some wide white walls to finish the look!
tell me what you think!!!!!!!!!
