Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

This is the result of about 60 hours of work. 1970 GMC Sierra Grande. Removed every piece of trim (except the upper bed), emblem, badge, door handles and door locks. Wet sanded it all w/2000 grit and then used Wizard buffing compound. I redid some of the lower trim w/new woodgrain tape and was able to straighten out the rest, although have a mountain of nice replacement trim. Removed inner fender wells, sanded and painted. Thought it important that what came on the truck stayed on the truck, despite it being much less time consuming to simply go get a better peice of trim. That's the original paint.
