My Cecil truck
- Thread starter Ronnie Russell
- Start date
3 months of body work. 8 hrs per day., 6 days a week. I hope to never see body supplies again in my lifetime. Its amazing how a faded 20 yr. old paint job can hide previous damage. I am tired. Wheels are vintage Ansen one piece aluminum. Very happy they were on the truck. I was going for " clean and neat" shop truck. I'm pretty satisfied. Plenty of work still to do. heater core, wiper motor, and odds and ends but I will get there, sooner or later. Hope Cecil has some before pictures as there as been quite a transformation.
Very nice.......... I really like the choice of white.....
Look's good ronnie, When you start driving it is when you will enjoy !!!!I know what you mean about body work, will it ever end????
Looking real good Ronnie. I can only hope mine can come out as good.
Trucks are fun to paint (not), especially a long bed. I did one some years ago and I'm not in any hurry to do another You did a good job and now you can relish in your accomplishment.
Bob. Don['t know what the tires would cost. Yes, 16.5 They were on the truck also. Tread is several inches deep 
, so I will never have to buy tires.
, so I will never have to buy tires.
Hey Ronnie, does Cecil get first right of refusal !!!!
Really nice Shop Truck.
Cecil, I have the door panels off right now, waiting on the new sport mirrors. Since the dash has to be stripped to install the new dash pad, I might as well replace the wiper motor and heater core at the same time. Not looking forward to that, right side hood hinge and inner fenderwell have to be removed to get access . But, its gotta be done so I will rest a few days then get started. When I get it back together I will post a picture of the interior in this thread. Thanks to everyone for the kind words. I like the two tone trucks better but this old gal will spend the rest of her life sitting outside in the hot Texas sun so white was the most logical color.
Very Cool Ronnie!! Love it!!!
