Thanks Ray.........White paint is always a challenge

[Wendell Jarvis]

Thanks gentlemen for the replies and compliments........appreciated !!

[Finemess]

Sweet looking SS. NTS, buy stock in Goodyear tire co.

[ShaunD]

I remember drooling over those trucks when I was a kid. Great work removing the drag strip off the rear of the bed. Those wheels really cleaned up too. And that interior really pops in the sun. I hear you on white. So many people say white is easy. I find itbmuch work as black, and it is way more strain on the eyes.
Glossiest drag tires I've ever seen. ;)
