The truck started as a clean original southern truck and over the last 18 months was restored from the ground up by me in my shop at MRCUCV. A new front clip with inner and outer fenders was added. The body was nice and straight so not much bodywork was needed. For paint I used PPG products, sealer then 2 gal of 2K primer was block sanded smooth and the 4 coats if PPG urethane enamel was applied. My goal when I build trucks is to provide very nice driver's quality turn key trucks for people to enjoy and be driven. Below is a partial list of the new parts and work preformed. Much more was done to detail and finish the truck below are just the highlights.
