With the truck up and running and most of the leaks fixed I decided to address a few things in the interior that bothered me. At some point and time during its life someone thought painting the inside of the doors with some tractor enamel with a brush (2 different colors) was a good ideal. I thought I could get it down to factory paint relatively quick, after almost 6 hours I got the passenger side done. Although it’s not super nice factory paint I would rather have it than the brushed on crap. I also dyed the door panels and arm rest to match the seat while I had them off.

Should have posted a before picture (it looks way better in the picture, trust me)

Graham57a · 02-18-2018, 10:59 AM

Looks great! What did you use to dye the panel?

SEM vinyl dye...takes a few coats but seems durable

The black you're using in the engine bay is the perfect sheen. Whats the name of it?
Great work.

Phill, I tracked that stuff down last week. The only place you can order it is directly through the manufacturer http://medallionrefinish.com. They told me $55 to ship a quart with activator to my door. I plan on ordering some soon.

Bringing this thread back to life.
I now own my old red 69 again.
n2billet did some amazing work to it while it was in his possession.
Glad to have this truck back!

**Dieselwrencher** · 03-30-2022, 05:42 AM

Very nice! I always loved this truck!

SCOTI · 03-30-2022, 09:06 AM

I told him I'm on the list if he sold it. Found out the plan & couldn't be happier.

Thanks.
It’s way nicer than when I sold it.
It’s on air ride and has a bunch of Porterbuilt parts on the chassis.
I couldn’t be happier with it.
It’s hard to explain all the work n2billet did to this truck.
