VERY nice, although I agree with Josh on the silver. Wanna shoot up to Mebane sometime, and do my stable?

Looks great Andy, both of them. What did you use on the paint? C'mon, those of us from Wash and Wax expect full rundowns of all the products you used

I had a busy time of my own here recently. I bought a new (to me) tow vehicle recently, a ten year old F250. When I got it, it was pretty beat up:



But it's all better now.

Cliffs Notes: when I bought this thing from a small used car lot in Rolesville, a "detailer" had already gotten his hands on it and damaged it quite badly. The truck was also used hard - for about five of its ten years, it was registered as a commercial vehicle. It's a great truck, and was very well priced, so I bought it and set about saving it.

Anyway, there is a very detailed writeup here. In the meantime, here's a handful of before/after shots.

Engine before:



Engine after:



Black plastic passenger side mirror before:



Same mirror, after:



Headlight, before:



Same headlight, after:



Driver side floormats, before:





Same floormats, after:





The whole truck was pretty beat up, but the driver side was the worst. Here's some shots of what it looked like when I bought it:





After:
