I have met hundreds of people like this and the day they get it painted is years and years down the road, until that day, with a little passion and the right products, they could restore their car's finish to its maximum potential and drive around a beautiful white 1967 Mustang Fastback, instead of one that looks old and deteriorated... Sure a new paint job would be awesome, so would a ground-off restoration, and maybe someday he'll get there, but for a few dollars and a few hours, we could have taken that old single stage finish and restored it to it's maximum potential and I can assure you, that car would have sparkled! But I digress...
Great work geoff !

I've been thinking about getting my truck painted for several years, but something always comes up - time, money, priorities, procrastination, whatever. Look how long it took me to get the first pictures posted. I adjusted my plans to something possibly attainable given schedule and time constraints. My project expectation now is to do one or two projects on the truck every year. So far I've done the camper shell and have a new, painted hood, and I'm more motivated to continue.
I bought this truck, new, with the intent of having a truck to use as a truck. I can go kayaking in the ocean, then shove kayaks in the back full of sand and salt water dripping down, and not care. Hard to give up something like that. But now that I've seen what I can make it look like, I want more
