Re: so lets build a truck/my '52 chevy

What system did you use for the bed coating? Did you just tint it with the auto paint, or did the supplier have to color match?

Re: so lets build a truck/my '52 chevy

it was speedlined.

I got the special primer and the converter that converts single stage to be able to adhere and flex with the bedliner.

Re: so lets build a truck/my '52 chevy

when you install your bumpers on your truck.
shorten your brackets up so
you can suck your bumpers
into the truck.Just a idea

Re: so lets build a truck/my '52 chevy

I like the barebones look of no splash pan so I guess give me time and I'll show you what a tucked bumper looks like, lol.
