Rick 5.2,
So you know the paint chipping off your truck isnt called orange peel. thats when you have paint but it was shot on and not sanded properly afterwards thus giving the same effect as an orange peel... it is a nice truck though.
Oh ok, well the paint peeled off in many places, especially the hood and the top of the cab. Starting to rust, had to fix it quick. I guess its a known problem with the first gen dakotas? Thing runs like a champ though.

Im new to this forum and I wish I would've found it when I first picked up my Dakota. Maybe then it wouldn't be so rough. I will post some pics of my rust bucket soon. I just wanted to say hello.
