Default Update

Update: After getting the truck back together me and my grandfather had the idea to completely restore the truck. So we took the truck back off the road and have been going over the truck with a fine tooth comb, all the rust will be goon and all dents will be pulled and the truck will get paint(out of a can lol) it will not be a show truck by any means. Here are some crappy cell phone pics.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with rattle cans for a cheap paint job, it's better than rust.
That's how I painted my camaro.

It looks like a section of the fender got cut out of a junkyard ram and was secured in place with bondo. It does look really good.
