Re: 1972 Cheyenne Restoration
More...over 90 hail and other dents(every dark spot is a dent), 1/2 inch bow down the middle from front to rear, inner braces bent, brace padding loose or missing, 1 repaint....a general mess. It took Jon and I about 20+ man hours to bring it back from the dead. From marking dents to final buff.

We need to have some kind of "super drool" icon... That truck is pretty darn perfect in my book.

Re: 1972 Cheyenne Restoration
Thanks everyone for the positive comments. Jon and I have mixed in old with new on his truck. Here are the door panels brfore we painted them with SEM paint. These are the very same door panels that came with the truck when we got it...believe it or not..and the same arm rests...

Re: 1972 Cheyenne Restoration
those door panels turned out great! Is that paint you used is pretty durable? I used to use some that paint in a spray can I think it was called Mar Hyde. It looked good but would scratch pretty easy.
