First time on the road after a resto
Took my truck for a test ride today after a 5 month frame off restoration. I ran out of cash and don't have the money to paint it, but the old paint really cleaned up nice with some cleaner wax and a few hours time. Excited to be back on the road with it, though still more work to be done.
Thanks for looking.

Re: First time on the road after a resto
I don't know what the paint looks like close up but it looks good in the pics. If its still in good shape just enjoy the truck for the summer and save he paint for next spring or something. Good luck

Re: First time on the road after a resto
Nice work man! If it looks good at 10' away, just imagine what people say when you drive by at 40 mph! Very clean truck, I like it!!
