Re: Sarge's rattle-can rebuild
Damn!t! Not good. Oh well. Hard to tell what happened in the picture because the paint is flat, but a limb fell on the cab and dented it up some including some metal damage into the windshield seal area plus busted the glass. I don't care nearly as much about the dent as not being able to get a new windshield and seal and just replacing them - the metal will have to be addressed first.
I am tempted to buy a stud welder and puller from Eastwood and trying my hand at fixing it. But I'd planned on getting it clear coated this spring anyway, so I'm going to take it to that guy tomorrow and see how much he wants to repair this too. No matter which one of us does it, the original paint will only be removed where a stud needs to be welded on. I can touch it up with rattle can primer and OD green. The truck will still be cleared satin/flat - that part I'm trusting him to figure out.
