2008 Chevy Silverado Extended Cab pickup truck today. The bed portion of the truck had been repaired and the body shop left some nasty buffer triails above the gas tank filler opening. They also didn`t do a very good job masking the remainder of the truck as there was some overspray on the driver side door near the door handle.



I knew this owner had a dog as I had done his wife`s car before, but he said "Don`t worry, I cleaned all the hair out last night as best as I could ....." :chuckle:



Of course, the truck is black on both the interior and exterior so everything really shows up.



On to the photos:

how could such a new car be soooo neglected so quickly? Bet the owner was happy with the outcome. Good job.

That`s not a detail, that`s an excavation. Nice work.

lucky for you they were leather seats. The cloth in these new silverado`s is terrible. it grabs onto every bit of lint and hair and fights you to the death before giving it up. nice turnaround.

Great turnaround! Those trucks are a lot of work, but it obviously came out great. There`s something about a properly done black truck that I find very appealing.

If memory serves me, probably 8-10 hours. It was a few months ago.
