wow, 10K for a paint job? when i had my 93 done a few yrs ago i had the full treatment it was a tick over 3K and that was with body repair (bedside R/R, front fender R/R, front trim).

looks good!

Yeah, after much thought, I think I'm going to keep my 10K and slowly fix my "problem areas" myself. I have the tools and the know-how, but time is the problem. But 10k...I was loosing sleep over this decision last night!

Don't worry pal...you have two options...either we pull the cap and bed or drop the tanks. You'll knock it right out and I'm good at handing wrenches ;Sweet
Can't wait to see everyone again...some damn good people, and to this day I still tell everyone that. ;)

EDIT bird crapped on my truck today...I could have killed the little *******.

I've often watched that video and thought how much guts it must take to do that. One mistake, and your seriously messed up! It would not be a good time to stall or blow out a hose! :eek:

:rotflmao It is amazing how they can spot a new paint job, Try painting it RED and see how much bird crap you get hit with, It's like a target for them.

The truck looks Great Ray. Way to keep on top of the rust. Now lets get you a nice set of Alcoas ;Sweet

Looking forward to seeing you again at the Rally.

On the "bird crapping on the truck note" I have not had this issue yet.... BUT..... it is/was lovebug season down here, and those little bugs splat all over the truck and if left on there ruin the paint..... and I dont mean one or tow bugs, im talking hundreds, its crazy!
