It ain't perfect by no means, but i use it like a truck also.

only thing is now there will be profanity flying when it gets a limb scratch. :lol:

if i can do it Pete then you can, your just to lazy to try..... :lol: :lol:

i can give some classes at S.O.P.

i been thinkin about bringin a little electric motor for a quick how to repair it class.

cause i'm shure every one of you have an electric motor on something, and those little
bastages ain't cheap anymore.

The paint looks excellent! I'll be picking your brain at Scheid and SOP about equipment and techniques.

Ever consider putting Alcoa dually rims on it?

Hey Dar what brand paint did you use? Its base/clear coat right? Also what brand gun did you spray it with? It really looks great in the pics the more i look at it.

I used nason paint it's made by dupont but without the warranty, the gun i used to shoot the clear is an old preshure cup Devillbiss, the base coat gun i used is a very cheap HVLP gun. it is base/clear. for everything to paint


primer 1 gal 3M fill and sand
sealer 1 gal ready to shoot
green 3 qts
silver 2 qts
activator for base coat 1 pnt
clear 1 gal
activator for clear 1 qt
reducer 1 gal

total including some tape and sandpaper was in the ball park of $600.00
