Guess what I'm doing for the next 2 weeks or so?!

After 2 years of having rust and paint chips get worse, I've decided to take care of business. The color is going to be Casablanca White, (brightest white in the book). I am also going to attempt to lay down a set of ghost flames, Magnum told me how. Going to spray bed liner on the rocker panels, and spray the bed with it, too. In the mean time, I am driving an 86 S10 that has been put through its paces. But paying 25 cents less for gas will be nice though - I just hope I don't put diesel in it

I just realized I don't know how to post pictures with the IMG button, but they are in my gallery. Just waiting for mod approval.

My truck is actually cheaper to drive than my car. The truck gets better mileage and even with the higher fuel costs it's still cheaper.

We could never figure out a time that worked for his class, and when I didn't need the truck. If they would have done the body work and painted it, it would have been out for over a month, just couldn't afford to not have the truck for that long. So instead he just payed me for the barstools that I made him. It worked out alright.

Hey doodah, I just remembered that the 30th is prom night! However, me being the bachelor that I am I don't have a date, if I can't get a date - or put down my purse and ask someone to it - I'll be down there. I just posted a couple more pics, these are of my 3 1/2 hour wire wheel escapade today... my wrist hurts!

Just a little update (didn't go to prom, and I'm still a week late on my estimated completion time) I'm posting some new pics right now, it's turning out pretty decent so far. Got 4 coats of white on tonight, will lay down the flames tomorrow and hopefully the clear. Then the bedliner kit gets here Monday so we'll be driving on Tuesday.
