First Outing Driveway Paint
The doors where dented and previous mirror strike damage chipping off. The bed rails were severely damaged from a tool box that was probably used for wet suits. The rails were gone from just after the front corner to about the filler holes. I used an old hood I had damaged last year for sheet metal and worked it in butt joining to get the sheet metal back to acceptable. I had never done this type of work. I took my time and the result is very good. Even looking for the seems I can not fine any signs of previous damage. Not bad for a first timer.
I left the tailgate lip damage and did not paint the bed. This is a driver and I throw a lot of rock and grove material in it throughout the year. Not the original dealer(?) sticker. I worked around that area to preserve. Not entirely sure why.
