Small update: got new center caps on the truck (pics soon), got the truck register and inspected again. Been nice driving her a bit. Tuesday on my way home from work, my power steering went. I need to find the leak this weekend.

I wanted to get opinions. One of the biggest mistakes I feel I made with this truck was painting over the original paint...it had an awesome patina. I am thinking of unearthing it to go with a patina look for awhile. Thoughts?

I am going to do a test on the rear fender this weekend.

Planning on using 100 grit sand paper. Any other tips?
