Teaser: This is nottt going to be fun

This is my late Grandfather's truck. 95 Chevy Silverado? It only has 35,000 miles on but you would think it has 200,000.

Here are some pics I snapped from yesterday. It's definately going to be getting XMT4 with a yellow pad all around then we'll go from there. There are a ton of baked on bugs and a few decent sized scrathes.
Fenderwells and wheels are a mess, running boards are a disaster, and the trim is just terruble.

Anyways, here are a few pics. I should be able to get at it as soon as the weather turns for the better:










If anyone knows of any neat little tricks they thought of when seeing these pictures. I'm all for it for this one. At least this should be fun but there doesn't look to be anything I can't completely turn around and make look great!

Yikes!! +1 That's how my mom's car used to look before I detailed it the first time. You definitely have your work cut out for you, but I can't wait to see the after pics.

Wow, that is going to be a lot of work. How's the interior? The engine? I bet that would take me days! I'm eager to see your results. Seeing your other posts I know you will turn this bad boy around.

Sorry you Grandfather passed away.

It looks like fun to me. I really enjoy a challenge. Besides you don't have to worry to much about messing it up.
