Post by: RayPrager on March 21, 2013, 05:11:43 PM: Well.......Yes , It shines .I had decided to paint the truck ALL Tan , they did that.... after looking at it though ,I decided I really liked the two tone , the white roof , bumpers and grill.SO........its been changed...Back to Original.
Anyways.....They are putting things back together, door gaskets, window gaskets ...pieces and parts...lol
I'm currently doin the wood for the bed and polishing bolt heads etc. Found a better rear bumper and its being undented....lol .Got a couple of kits from Totally Stainless...so ,that will get installed also... still lots to do ,But ,I am excited about this, its been many years since its had good paint on it...
thanks

Have a look guys..... John
