Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Sim6, what did you use for clear and is it glossy, matte, satin? My body guy mentioned PPG has something designed for bare metal now but so far I've left mine bare with gibbs and its doing well. If I ever use something I'd prefer not to change the look of the metal at all.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Another random pic of my truck just before I do a bit of work to the front end, looks good this low but going to raise it a little unfortunately as riding on the bump stops wears thin after awhile...

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I've done some work since my previous post, so I thought my '50 deserved another pic. It's gradually turning black, one rattle can at a time.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

I'm on holiday, taking pictures of the easy to photograph trucks left out to pasture. Would love to take the time to drive off the interstates.
