On the road again🤗
She drives damn good, actually rides really well for an old 1-ton farm truck Dodge. Shifts and steers so much better then original ever did. The brakes are downright scary when you’re use to the stock Dodge vacuum setup. The FarFromStick hydro boost absolutely gets with it, I locked it up and sent rear seat into me coming to the first stop.
Got lots of looks, multiple people giving me hell at stop lights, guy in Chev said f***ing full send bad ass!
Gotta tune it a little, she smokes too much but holy crap does it go. Barked tires coming into third. Very happy.

Hoods ready for primer. Damn it was worse then I thought. Both sides were bowed like a square body Chev, not normally a Dodge thing. 2x4/hammer lol. Rust, scratches, pealing paint gone. Moving on.

I miss this s***. I’m good at it, and like busting ass for a living. Makes me ponder why i moved up into professional adult babysitting. I mean management.

Are you painting it tonight?

Top surfaces to make it easier the rest of the weekend. Ton of body work left and it’s a big ass old truck, but so help me it’ll get done this weekend.

 

[JenElio]

Looking badass CP!! I know all too well what it takes to get that big beast all prep'd and painted. You're doing a hell of a job buddy 👍
Can't wait to see it all dun up n purtty

Made paint. Got bodywork to the roof done, sucked to have to repaint but the tent collapse screwed it up. Primed both, baked then sanded. Sealed, used PPG Dodge PW7 white urethane single stage then 2 coats of DC 4000 PPG clear over it.
Including work it’s been an 18hr day with probably a couple more on the way, I’m the hell out of here!
