just run this one to events and cruise as it is with sunburnt primer and carry on with the 63,i found it hard doin one up and not driving one, now i can do both at once

harry · 01-16-2008, 05:59 PM

welcome to the board from new zealand.your truck will look good low,thats what i liked about this one

badriand · 01-16-2008, 07:07 PM

Welcome, looks like that dash is painted with that Rustoleum textured paint or some other brand. I think Lowes has a ton of that stuff comes in rattle cans. That 2nd toggle from the left looks like the previous owner did the same thing i did. Is that your horn? My wires were pinched in between the turn signal adapter on the steering wheel and after several hrs of jacking with it and it still not working i said f$#@ it. Cut the wires and mounted it in the same place.

I agree kick it old school. I tend to like that better myself. These cats that dump all this money into paint jobs don't like you to touch it or hardly drive it afraid of scratching it. What's the fun it that. I know mine isn't pretty but i drive it like i stole it - no worries.

Thou you may want to touch up a dab on that surface rust with something before it eats all the way through.
