Bare metal, self etching primer, rustoleum hammered black. Thanks for the compliments, I was unsure at first, but really like the contrast, and hides small imperfections. It really pops in the front against black wheel wells!

I cleaned the tank out, installed new Bosch pump ( was free bc of lifetime replacent, luckily truck was vortec so itll support the swap) then sprayed the outside and cover w cheap bedliner, pic makes the finish look uneven, but its not.

Then sat the bed on and moved some of my million parts and rolled her inside, will sit inside on stands a while because wheels are selling this wk and.my new ones are backordered. Next few days will be spent organizing all my parts and cleaning up, then start engine work, on to pics, yes I have a lot of stuff haha

Nice work! Its cool how you have a long history with this truck... Its one thing to still have it, but even better to rebuild it with such detail and a hot motor. Very cool.
