Project ugly duckling

[dazedandconfused]

Lol trying to keep a low profile look so I don't think painting it like truck would work lol.

My buddy had a ratty old Civic and painted it like that, white doors/trunk and black car. The cops definitely didn't enjoy it and pulled him over all the time for any reason. He never got an impersonating an officer ticket but they always threatened him they could.

Yeah I don't need that kind of attention.

PUSS

Man up and paint it white with a blue pearl topcoat,add a thin blue pin stripe to accent the dodge body line with a tiny tot Cummins c on the gate. With the same wheels it'll look like a normal truck,at night it'll stick out big time with the pearl

White has been high on the color list after all the ugly duck did turn into a beautiful swan.

Low gloss black is pretty cool. It's like a satin, it has a shine, but not real mirror like.

I'm telling you.....get the pearl,that stuff is nice
The only draw back to it is if you have an uh oh it'll be hard to match and ( according to the b-i-l) it's a beooch to paint.

Well had a bad morning. Heading to my folks to drop off my daughter when a tree came down in front of us across the road. Nothing I could do to avoid it. I'm just glad we didn't get hurt.

It scared the hell out of me. My daughter was screaming she was bleeding and I didn't really know what had happened. This is the tree I hit and where it impacted the cab it split.

[dazedandconfused]

Thanks guys, I busted ass on it for about 5 and a half hours until my babysitter had to leave. im going to work on it some more here in a little while.







This is how it sits now. I need to try and get the dash out without pulling the windshield for right now so Im going to cut it around the bolts on top. I have to put the doghouse on, find a radiator and change dash wiring.
