well I worked most of the night got it all ready and even drove it up thru town and back still lack painting the inside of the bed , thinking about a rino liner spray ? anyway still lack interior part's cleaning under the hood but I think I'm gonna take a break and just drive it !!! this has taken me 2 month's and 3 week's minus a few day's it was too cold , well let's go out and apply some hand glaze to see if this will get a little shiny and go to the cruz in ,
I'M TIRED !!!! WHEW !!!

Great work! That is the way I used to do all my hot rods. Just get them running, paint them and drive them. I don't know where I took a wrong turn and decided that I had to pull the body off the frame...LOL! Enjoy...I love the stock look!

Wow, your truck is sweet! Looks like it just rolled off the assembly line in 1967! Good work...love the reflections in the paint!

next time I paint I am gonna try and see if I can buy me a buffer to buff the paint with , I buffed this truck with my drill and I think the speed is to fast A buffer is slower RPM and would do a lot better job , my drill also get's hot fast and they really ain't no way to hold it either ? anyway thank's for the replie's ,,,,

That just looks great! I think You mentioned it in one of the other posts but is this a base/clear or single stage and what brand? Then did you use a booth or open garage? Some details would be great.
