Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

If you don't mind me asking, What size wheels do you have on your truck and are you using drop spindles and a flip kit?

it wouldve been nice if there was someone t guide you trough the first parts of it all it usualy takes is teaching someone the little things to look out for and show him when to stop laying the wet stuff on
used to do a little spraying on those realy big trucks couldnt spray those front to back in one go without running a maraton so i got realy good in featering into the former part
i've been out of it for more than 25 years so my first one will prolly suck as whell

try the buffing after the paint has time to dry further usually takes a month or so to fully dry
