So I am starting this thread a little late, but better late than never. This was a family truck my Uncle left me when he passed. He was a second dad and I want to honor him by breathing new life into the rig. Three months have passed, a lot has been done....

Great local painter, and teacher. He’s been a great teacher in regards to spraying and life. He has a 1997 2500, so it’s been fun cleaning her up.

Going to strip the headliner today and save a few bucks at the upholstery shop. Using a wire brush on an angle grinder, with a razor blade and shotgun bore brush to clean up the edges.

Picked up an old tool box off Craigslist for 40.00...A lot of surface rust, but structurally in good shape.

Got this back yesterday, if you need a good dustless guy in Riverside, Kevin and Mike are both good guys. Mike knocked this out in 30 minutes both inside and out. A coat of epoxy primer and it will be color matched with the trucks final coat. My goal is too bring life out of old used parts.
