OK OK, so I didn't do anything TO the truck this weekend (I know there's a lot of you picture junkies out there....because this thread has almost $1,500 hits
) Anyway, I do have an update! I picked up the paint and primer for the truck this weekend. I got a gallon of each (paint and primer) and it should hopefully be enough. The primer is a general purpose high build/bare metal primer that can be painted over.
The paint color is going to medium blue metallic. The guy tried to help me find "maui blue" but was unable to locate it
If this color looks as sweet on the truck as it does in the paint book I'm going to be very happy. The paint is going to be a "one step" urethane paint. I got the paint, primer, a good prep, some tach rags and a couple other paint supplies for $315. Wohoo! 2 more weeks!
