My truck the before and during

I picked my deuce up at Fort McCoy on August 23rd. She is a great running truck with lots of new mechanicals and sheet metal. So far it's been in one parade and I've put nearly 1300 miles on it since I picked it up. However, the paint was ugly and the roof was rusty so I had to do something about that. Also I have a built cover on the back of mine and not canvas, but it looked like a family for coons lived in the back or it may have been used as a FEMA trailer at one time. I am posting a bunch of pictures of the before and some of the parts are now finished with fresh paint and new hardware.

Looking at the post above I can't get over how ugly that baby diaper brown paint really is. But here are some picks after a little sandblasting by Poof and some rattle cans of Rustoleum. Sorry guys I just can't swing CARC at the moment. I also kicked out the coons, fixed the lights and put heat in the back.
