Well, After 4 years of very enjoyable labor, I got my truck done this spring. One of the biggest reasons it turned out as good as it did was because of all of the help & encouragement I recieved on this board. I thank you for that! I went a lot farther with it than I ever intended. I won a couple of trophies this year & had a great time at the car shows. I just wanted a driver that looked cute, but it went way beyond that! Now I can't stand to go out of town, or even get it dirty because it is only new once, so I decided to sell it. So the moral of the story is: "keep it driveable, or be able to tolerate what rock chips, dirt and water will do to your work."
One thing is for sure; If I never do another project vehicle, it will be because of painters' schedules'.
The truck is posted over on the "for Sale" board.
