Re: 1972 Cheyenne Restoration

I'm sure that doesn't surprise you especially with working this newer paint jobs on new vehicles? I remember all the problems we saw in the 90's and it was crazy how little paint actually was sprayed on. Especially dodges.

Re: 1972 Cheyenne Restoration

Thanks everyone for the comments. We have come a long way since October of last year, that's for sure. We are hoping to have it on the road in the coming weeks. Believe it or not, that is the plan. I sanded the outside of the driver's door today and all we have left is the cab and bed... We haven't gotten the hood or tailgate done yet, but that is not a problem.
