Hard work pays off

I usually am never on this side of the forum since I’ve never really had this body style of pickup but there’s just something about being able to see the hard work pay off. Here’s a picture of when I first bought my 82 Scottsdale 20. 101,860 actual miles, cruise control and radio all still work and there’s not a single tear in the seat or floor man or crack in the dash. And the second picture is after several hours of buffing the paint then putting a coat of wax on it. Thought I’d share and yes maybe brag a little lol

Thanks guys, it’s got her original 350 and 700r4 transmission. I just completely redid the air conditioning system and converted it to 134. Just need to detail the interior then I’ll be done with it.
