Well the radiator finally gave up on this truck this week, got it swapped with a spare and gave it a fresh oil change this afternoon. This truck isnt run much but I sure don't wanna see it neglected ;)

The rig looks good; a lot of great progress from how you originally picked it up.

 

Do you have any close up shots of the finish on the truck? I am curious since you used the roller method of paint application.

I don't currently have any, but id be glad to snap a pic or 2 for ya.

 

 

Thanks for the compliments, this truck made a sucessful round trip 100 or so miles the other week for my parents, thats the most this trucks been run under my ownership. Its been very reliable though and Dad still enjoys it greatly!

here's the best 1 can do for a close up photo, the texture isnt caught by the camera but it really a pretty smooth surface.

Well i havent been in this thread much. The truck has been doing very well though. My Pap drove it for about a month while his Dakota was being repaired and he complimented on the power atleast 4 times. Haha. Anyway I pulled this thing in the garage this afternoon and threw on a set of Load Handling shocks I bought dad for his Birthday. Now he has the task of testing them out!
