I purchased this truck about 4 or so years ago from a local surplus dealer and after a long wait and a ton of wrenching.....I FINALLY got her finished! When I bought this truck, it was in good running shape....but it was a site of soar eyes. This was my first restoration project and it ended up being a lot more work then what I anticipated...especially because Im super picky on perfection. Most of my buddies who have these trucks rattle can em and fix what is needed. I ended up having this truck completely striped down, blasted, rebuilt and professionally painted. I lost track of how much money I put into it but it was worth every penny lol. Theirs still a couple odds and ends I would like to do to it...but for the most part it is complete. It was a lot of fun thats for sure!

I really like the non-skid coating in the bed.

The truck looks great and as being a perfectionist on my own deuce restoration I know how much work you have put into it, and it a very large amount of hours and showers before bed and OD paint washing down the drain from all the scraping that was done that evening. The result is you now have a truck that YOU can be proud of in many ways, its beautiful and you did the work yourself, it really doesn't get much better than that! Congrats on a great job it really does look great!

Just one fault though.."the front bumper is .00020 lower on one side!"..NO seriously..fantastic..I for one have not ever seen a deuce as well turned out as yours. And that colour and detailing..one of a kind. Now enjoy your your truck to the full..It will turn heads anywhere, including at attended shows and the enthusiasts there of many years.
