How much paint have you went through painting the insides and outsides?
I went to the local paint shop and the guy told me a gallon and a quart would be
enought to paint the inside and out of my truck. I didn't say anything but thought
that was way short of what it would take.

1968GMC · 03-17-2004, 05:43 PM

eystroke the bodyman got 2 gallons of yellow and he said it wont be enugh. keep ind mind that the roof is going to be white. The interior will be yellow also. Guys thanks for the comments Im exited . Im stripping the paint off the cab as we speek. I should be done strippng in a week(just the outside of cab). I told the bodyman I would bring in the cab (shel) on april 1. I will send my frame to get sandblasted next week if all goes well.
