Well as most people know I had to have my horse repainted. 2 gen troubles, the roof clear coat started to wear off. I didn't have a ton of money so I took it to Maaco. They did a pretty nice job. Here are some pics of her with her new paint. I left off all the stock vinyls and badges and I am going to have everything done in custom vinyl. Those pics later. Here she is:

Yes , she is a 1998 Sport 1500 4x4. I bought her just as you see her except she had all her badges & decals. I did add the chrome step tubes also.

I went with the lowest level. I didn't have a ton of money. They did a great job for the price. At one time she was my sports car. I traded a V-12 Jag for her. Then I got into doing apartment maint. and she has been my work horse ever since. She works hard, but that doesn't mean she has to look beat up and old.

Yup...the old paint was rough at best. Took it there and they sanded, filled in some spots along the bed rails, primed it, layed the black, cleared it, taped off the bottom, sanded the top, primed the top, shot the silver, cleared the silver, untaped the bottom, laid the pinstripe and then cleared the whole thing again...
