Nice man congrats south GA.

Re: The Patina Machina
Nice looking truck. Good to see you start a build thread for it. Am I seeing remnants of grey primer on your truck? If so, do you plan on trying to remove it to get back to completely original paint? I bet that would come off pretty easily with the common CLR approach and a little scrubbing.

Re: The Patina Machina
Very nice start to a project. Beautiful truck :mm:

Re: The Patina Machina
You're making quick work of this thing. I'm looking forward to seeing it on the ground.

Re: The Patina Machina
What thickness spacers did you have to run on front and rear to get the wheels to fit and sit right?

As far as the back, the stepside is a bit finicky for room and for now there are 1 1/4" spacers on the rear. Now with the bags being done, I have a feeling I'm going to need to remove the spacers. I'll see when I get the bed back on. |
