Not really a glamor shot, but I took this picture last Sunday. I was busy all day installing a Phase 5 kit from Stage 3 along with a UPS Mega catch can.
Awesome looking truck. Wanted to give the Black Stallion some attention this weekend but got bogged down with Honey Do's.
Maybe next weekend.
Thank you! This black paint is hard to keep perfect, that's for sure! I hand wash mine but it still has some swirls and scratches from the previous owner. Using the compound/polish I was able to take some out, but under the right light you can still see fine scratches/swirls. I didn't have a very aggressive pad on hand though. Maybe after winter I'll put some more time into it. Then again, as soon as it leaves the garage it usually has a fine layer of dust on it anyways then it's all covered up regardless lol
Yeah I know what you mean. This is my old girl. She's in awesome shape for her age. I stay so busy between work and home that I don't have the time to give her the attention she deserves. I think come tax time next year I am going to put her in the shop for body work and paint. Doesn't need a lot of body work. Mostly the left front fender some rust issues. The paint on the hood is faded something bad because there is no heat blanket inside. Have to get that addressed before the paint goes on. Other than that I plan to do a complete replacement of the grill and headlights from the radiator out. I just bought the truck about a month ago and most of it is zip tied in place and hanging on by a thread.
