Update:

I left work early on Thursday, 10/1 to go home and prep my truck for paint. On Friday morning, I took off early to Moriarty. My buddy Abe lives there and he let me use his shop to spray my truck. My other buddy, Greg (65panelrat) drove out from Rio Rancho to give me a hand. THANKS A MILLION GUYS!! Couldn't have done it without you. So here it is...my first paintjob. I did the roof first with the green apple metallic paint that I used for the interior...

jchav62 · 10-06-2009, 12:20 PM

After that was sprayed, we pulled it out the sun for a bit to dry. We then 're-masked' and began spraying the "Rustoleum" satin white...

jchav62 · 10-06-2009, 12:23 PM

My good friend Abe Flores. He was giving me pointers all day. He's a very good, experienced painter. Here he is having my back...he went around her a few times with the gun. You're the man ABE!!

jchav62 · 10-06-2009, 12:25 PM

After the paint dried some, we pulled it out, pulled the paper and put some pieces back on...

Beer time...

Very proud.. Though it's not a 'car show' paint job, there's nothing like the feeling of doing it yourself...

JohnC · 10-06-2009, 02:48 PM

It looks awesome man. You did a great job. Are you planning on doing any more of the green, or just the top?

STOCKISH · 10-06-2009, 03:00 PM

Looks kinda cool with the green top. Good job man.

Jonboy · 10-06-2009, 04:18 PM

Looks great! Having the pride of doing it yourself is priceless.

BruthaMan · 10-06-2009, 07:06 PM

Awesome job, Hoser! Been wondering how you were doing!
