Can't wait to see the rest.

My gut would prevent that.

Right now my rate is $30/hr which will probably go up starting next year. My original estimate was 30 hrs, but has been revised up and I'm still not sure how long it's going to take. I am trying to keep it under 40 hours but we'll see how it goes.

Taking a break from the paint to do some metal polishing...

You never realize how much area these trucks have until you do a full detail on one yourself. Takes a lot of time! Nice truck and nice work so far!

Missing a bolt or something in the leaf pack?

Yup, the shocks are also too short for the lift that is on here

Nice work underneath, on top, and all over. I like the shots of the undercarriage being thoroughly cleaned and adding the power washer into the mix was the right way to go under there.

These trucks jacked up like that make it a real bear to work on because of having to constantly move the step....

A lot of work and the saga continues....

I'm thoroughly impressed. Way to go! I detailed 2 boats and decided to stick to cars thereafter because of the amount of polishing they required.... and they were probably not much longer or bigger than this truck..plus you're getting into the crevices of the undercarriage, (and doing the interior?). Props to you I'm so psyched to see how this comes out. Too bad about the owner putting chrome on top of the rusting spots :/
