Congrats! Is she pregnant? If not you should have some time to put a case together

Well, they're aluminum. Now they're brushed aluminum. Brushed is just a finish, like polished aluminum. Yes clear coat is clear paint.

You have to keep your truck forever now and she can never make you get rid of it...you drove her to "the spot" in it...must keep for sentimental reasons now.
Seriously though..Congrats man. You WILL have some ups and downs...but I will take married over single every time. There will be times when you will think "the grass is always greener" but man...it's not. I don't even know you, but I wish you the best. Take those vows seriously...stay true...be honest with each other and yourself and you are in for a beautiful ride. Oh I could go on and on...and I probably sound like another old guy to you...so I'll stop. Again, congrats! So where is "the spot"? How did you propose?

I've only had her for two weeks, but she got a nice shower and some buff and polish today...tarn-X worked wonders for the surface rust on the wheels. Im diggin her.






Iv'e got big plans. Clear Headlights, Signals and Smoke tail lights on the way. Then its on to the Lift kit, wheels and tires, haven't decided to keep the paint or not but id like to white it out. What do you guys think?!
