WOW! i'm jealous that you guys can even fit your truck in the garage.

Paul Clark · 06-05-2002, 10:06 AM

Looks great. Hope mine comes out half that good.
What kind of paint did you use?

WOLFMAN · 06-05-2002, 11:27 AM

THAT IS KILLER!!!!!

I'm getting ready to paint mine, what an inspiration! Did you paint the inside and out all at one time? (overspray?) or Did you paint the inside and tape it off before shoot the outside. I've painted alot of cars but only one truck, a 53 chevy truck, it turned out great but what a B*@#H!

ANY tips on painting truck, cabs - inside and out / beds inside and out would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

SWEET !!! Looks like you did a hell of a good job, and I like the color combo too! Can't wait to see the finished project.

Smooth68 · 06-05-2002, 12:26 PM
