Which is why I was thinking about the pd to cover it up. It'll be harder to notice since it'll all be one color and I don't think it'll look too bad

I didn't have a ton of money, so I went to Maaco. It was 600.00 to paint the entire truck and prep the roof for painting. I thought I got a good deal.

Paul, was that the single stage economy job? Keep me posted on how well it holds up...I too will be going to Maaco, I surely cant afford some $2,000 job.

I have had the truck painted for about 7 months and the paint looks great. It is holding up well so far.

This is my recent purchase for my ram 3500 i have been looking for one of these for many years just could not find any that was affordable for me or wasn't a piece of junk. I have been watching this one on craigs list for the last month i finally called the guy and went yesterday to look at it it's in very good shape structarally all the windows are intact including the screens except th rear door window is missing the frame is there window is missing. I plan on painting it during my thanksgiving vacation. As of right now i have 50 dollars in it not a bad deal i think.I going to find a replacement door assy. or have the glass replaced. Then i will have perminent storage for my fishing rods and stuff.
