My son goes off to college soon and I gave him my old gal here. Its a 94 and she's only got around 36,000 miles on her.

The paint was in bad shape.....lots of tree sperm and bird crap and all kind of nasty biological crap.

What was not green and growin' was already raising its young.......:Picture:

We washed, clayed, and used Mozerna and an orange pad....Ubelievable how the ol gal cleaned up. Doggone it I forgot the B4 pics...so you'll just '

The truck looks good Ray, and it's nice to see father and son working on it together. That's one nice truck for as old as it is. Don't forget the underside of that hood now, don't want it to detract from a clean engine bay! Nice work.:bigups
 
Great transformation. Nice clean up and great way to show the youngun the merits of a little hard work.
 
Jared I spray it down with simple green...went after it with brushes to get rid of the worst......then rinse, then sprayed a can of engine degreaser....

rinsed, gave it a blowjob with the leafblower and sprayed it with a rubber-safe dressing.
