Well, I hope I answer you question.
Mainly I just want to broaden my knowledge for myself. I do detailing for friends and family for a profit, but it doesn't pay-off enough to really stick with that. I want to make my truck perfect. Except for the current stench the interior is emaculate, and basicly perfect.
The truck isn't even 2 years old (built in mid 2002), and was very well taken care of before I bought it. The couple had traded in two cars and bought two brand new ones, and both cars were amazing. The exterior was perfect when I bought it, and someone thought that wasn't good and slammed there door into it while I was at work. So there is a dent (it didn't chip, thankfully), but it's a good dent. My brother is going to bring it to work (Abra AutoBody) and have someone fix it (one of these years). The paint is 100% scratch and swirl free, but it doesn't have the mirror affect that I want. It's sexy, don't get me wrong, and I can see myself in it, but the reflection is grainy and isn't as clear as I want it.
Maybe it's the color. It's Graphite, which is a grainy, but classy, color.
I do also plan on doing some exterior accersories, like nurf bars, grille inserts, front light bar, and (a far fetch) shaving the door handles.
I live in a suburb in north east Minneapolis. Anoka is the closest city on the map, even though the city I live in has just over 60 thousand people. It would be great to go to a meet, but I will be starting school in the spring, and thats an expense that I can't see myself making right now...I need a better job.
I don't have much bandwith rights on my image host right now, but here is one image of my truck...The tinted windows were a nice touch, and from the rear the molded mudflaps make the truck look really low.
