making some changes to my truck(keeping up with the Rev)
 

Thought I could become famous like the Rev. so I sent the truck to the shop for some new fenders and paint. Ah the price of fame.

:lol:

Let's see some before pics.

They did quite a good job.

actually the same shpo painted my truck in 1979

WOW - you turned a Freightliner cabover into a Peterbilt conventional. You win. My hat is off to you.

That must have been some primer coat.

They put 2 gallons of white and 2 gallons of clear on Friday, second color on Monday, maybe a finished picture on Thursday.
The freightliner is setting in front of the same bay they are painting my Pete in 30 years later. You have to admit the FL was quite a truck in it's day, 1972, 86 inch cab, 30 inch bunk, 350 cummins, 13 speed, am radio, spring ride, manual steering, and AC.

Maybe I can get one of those AC units for my truck..... :lol:

Those were good simple AC units, roof mount with elect fans for the condenser, no extra heat from the ac into the radiator, plus the truck had shutters on the radiator which could cause a conflict.

If you want your truck to look like Rev's, don't you need to hunt down a deer with your truck first? :wink:

At least he got the hail damage part right...
