I like the new project. More of a daily driver? I plan on doing something similar with a square body for my next one. Looks to be a great truck to start.

Re: slammed 57
 

That truck will look great cruising down the road with them big rims.

Re: slammed 57

Nice job! That cut and buff came out really nice. The appearance of depth in the paint is amazing. I plan on doing the same.

Re: slammed 57
 

Nice job Mike. Looking great

Re: slammed 57
 

Working on the inside of the cab now, spent the last 3 days wet sanding and polishing. My shoulders are about shot… but finally finished… Whewww. Now onto the dash and back wall of cab.

Re: slammed 57
 

is that as good as you are gonna get it? it's only mirror finish.....
kidding, looks great.

Re: slammed 57
 

Looks very nice. That Shine!!! I can only hope mine looks close to what you have done. Steve

Re: slammed 57
 

Thanks so much... I'll see if i can do a lil better on the dash. lol

Re: slammed 57
 

Just take your time and work through the grits and put 5-6 coats of clear to give you enough material to work with.. If i can do it , you definitely can

Re: slammed 57
 

Thank You for the encouragement. I typically put 5 coats of clear on my stuff. It will be a decent truck when done and fun to drive. Steve

Re: slammed 57
 

Y'all this color sanding,buffing and polishing is a ton of work, But OHHHH the end result is SOOOOO rewarding. You can really see the clarity and the reflection in the firewall. Little early to start putting any kind of trim on, but I was kind of anxious to see how it would look on the dash.

Re: slammed 57
 

WOW, the shine. Straight mirror finish. You’ve done an excellent job on all the bodywork. It’s going to be blinding in the sun. Only hope mine turns out as nice. Keep the pictures coming!

Re: slammed 57
 

That looks nice!!

Re: slammed 57
 

damn! well played!

... i can't even find a gif to appropriately portray they level of shiny, eye popping, holy crap.

Re: slammed 57
 

Looks really nice!! I like the instant gratification of a cut and buff. Steve

Re: slammed 57
 

Too Cool! :bling2:
