    just got the ranchero back from the muffler shop where they put on an exhaust pipe and an old muffler my brother had laying around from one of his old volkswagens.

    prior to today, i finished spraying rubber undercoating to the undercarriage of the cab in the interior of the cab. we cleaned the seat up a bit and bolted it in to at least make it drivable. next step is to get carpet in it. then probably buy about 30 cans of flat black and spray her. there is a pretty bad leak in the exhaust somewhere though. the radiator might have to be replaced, it's spitting antifreeze everywhere.

    anyways, it's coming along nicely. we haven't transferred the title yet, and we checked the other day and fortunately it's still in our city's licensing system. thus, it won't be long before a new license plate and tabs arrives.

    also, i want to do the, i think it's called the rhino coating in the bed of it. do any preparations need to be made for it? do i take it to a shop and they spray it, or is a self application product where i can do it myself?

    You seem to be a hands-on guy, so I'm sure you'd rather do it yourself......

    Just did a guys pickup today.... He had it all washed out, grand total of about 1 1/2 hour to do the box. I use it on the insides of the fenders on 'glass cars (drivers, not show cars) and really like it. Lots cheaper and looks better then the rattle can undercoating.....
