christ it might as well be a 5 gallon bucket

 

Lol yeah it's gonna be a beast!

 

How do people keep paint on their rockers down there...... lol. Even with mudflaps that hand 2" off the ground and 3M I still get chips from hell on asphalt.... must be nice.

 

How far do your tires stick out? I have some chips by the rear tires

 

They don't need to stick out and I don't own a vehicle that does.... stock trucks with stock offset have no paint left without serious help. Like look at yours.. the rockers and the front edge of the bed would be bare as old as that thing is here....I plan on offset that keeps the tires within the confines of the wheel wells on my 1990 K5 listed in my sig........ but I am still going to have colormatched linex done part way up the trucks body to keep it looking decent. It's not really chipped either but it also has no mileage for it's age and never really went anywhere!

 

For the most part, I don't think we have rocks the size of small children along our roads and highways lol

 

Naw.....none of you have real winter either lol. These old ones stand up better.... junk like that 2015 I have has the paint fall off if you look at it funny.

Besides..... its sand... you know, like a sandblaster, that causes 90% of damage.

 

Well I traded a buddy my semi float rear end for a full floater, I painted the full floater two nights ago, I used Krylon Implement paint, I'm impressed! It came out great! I slapped it under the truck last night and bolted it all up. Eventually it'll get a Detroit locker and 4.88 gears





The primer I used is an odd brown colored Rustoleum "Rusty metal primer... for the ultimate finish on heavily rusted metal" and it went on really good!





And since I forgot to post interior pictures before, here's the interior!
