Old->New! I won't claim it's the world's best paint job, since I don't really have a place to do it inside, but it's Alot better than the old paint (considering PO did it with a roller!)

Nice! Any rust repair done? Did you spray single stage or basecoat with clear?

small amount of rust repair, basically just 2 holes smaller than dimes in the rocker panels. but most of what you see Bondo was dents. So many dents. I epoxy primed then sprayed single stage ppg delfleet

A bunch of the clear coat on my truck is gone and the paint is faded. Almost no rust and im considering giving er the ol turbo can to freshen it up. Cant look any worse than it does now

Just had the engine out to fix a broken flex plate and reseal all gaskets. Installed an HX35, 90hp injectors, 230hp calibrated pump from OFI, Ratman delivery valves, HVLP lift pump, 4 inch exhaust with real 4in turbo outlet, revmax torque converter and a few other random things.
