What kind of paint did you use? I'm thinking of painting my 87 just flat black soon

 

[MoNos]

Walmart Rustoleum, works great! Took 9 cans to do a nice even job. I need to get another can or two and do inside the wheel wells and a few other areas under the truck.

Nice, so did you just scuff the paint or did you take of down to primer?

 

[MoNos]

I just scuffed it up really well.

That's a nice looking truck, welcome to the black-rattlecanned club What size are those tires, 285/75-16s?

I like Kansas. And the paint jobs of the area. That looks good Maybe I'll do something like that someday.

They are 35x12.50x16 (or 315/75R16)

not to hijack the thred

just a tip on cheap ass painting dont bother with the rattel cans go hit up criegs list and look for one of thos air-less sprayers, you can get them for 20$ and they do a good job for a cheap paint job and then sell it again or keep it for the next 50$ paint job. But they make the job soooooooo much easer you just have to thin the paint down with paint thinner

Well that would definitely explain why they look like steam rollers, lol

Yep, this isn't my first time w/ Rattle can on an IDI Truck.

This is my 1st IDI Truck (I got rid of a little over a year ago)

It's a 1983 F350 2wd Dually Flat bed. 6.9 liter w/ the T19 tranny.

This is when I first got it, and the Lot/FIELD it was in...
