been paintinng the last few days
Still have some dents that didnt get fixed but it still looks about 10000 times better. I like the "new" wheels, they fit much better than my old "A-Team" mags.

Looking great!! I like the simple chrome wheels as well,but I also like the alloys you had on it(I assume those are them in the stack).That is the exact color my truck is,and some day I will re-paint it.Mine is in good shape,but it needs paint.
Did you paint it yourself?Where did you get the wheels?How much paint have you used?I would think painting a truck like these will take a lot of paint to do the inside of the bed,and all.Is it a single stage paint like the factory stuff(my preference),or a base-coat/clear-coat system?

I didnt do the inside of the bed yet, that will have to wait until some time after sevenstock. It is still quite rusty. The rest of the truck I think took around a half gallon. My friend and I did the paint, its a single stage. The color isnt exactly the stock color but its fairly close. Maybe a bit more yellow in it but hard to tell.
The wheels I bought used from a local guy who owned a REPU. They are 14x7 in the rear and 14x6 in front. nothing too special but they look good I think.
