Re: Super Short 4x4 LS6 Build

Finally got my truck painted. Special thanks to my brother and buddy for a great job on paint and body work. The paint job turned out really awesome. Now just have to finish putting the truck back together for summer car shows

Re: Super Short 4x4 LS6 Build

We used a sata gun, preped by spraying primer 3 times blocking out from 180 and working our way down to 400 and wet sanding the final coat of primer before sealing with white sealer and then the base coat. We used crossfire paint from napa and the color is from a 1994 Dodge steath on this one.
