I had a Ford courier that was painted brushed on latex paint :joy: went and looked at a truck once that a fella tried to do body work with drywall mud, I didn’t buy it

I think bed liner is the perfect coating for a work truck. Mighty nice of Wayne to let his wife paint that truck. I think he’s been reading Tom Sawyer again.

I don’t know about that TomH.
I painted the whole inside of the house we are moving from 27 years ago after a major remodeling. I carved out the time from my 12 hour graveyard sleep buget. Nurse Wife was works buried at that time.

Now this newly acquired house it is she, one room at a time doing the color changing and smells sealing in repainting.
She strongly hints that I lost my fine detail patience (and perseverance) years ago.

She’s doing mightly fine job of it I’ll say.
While I go out weeds and brush slaying to re-establish the yards, the garden space, the fence lines, and the access lanes. There, kill’em almost-all; bull-it-done, is the need.
Now ain’t that perseverance?!

Everyone who would rather pull weeds and clear brush rather than paint a room please raise your hand so we can slip you into a jacket that the arms tie in the back. :hot_face:

Everything is better then painting a room, except that special jacket of yours :grinning:

A nostalgia meetup today. Only 500 yards from my house.
Several good looking vehicles, but only one woodburner.

Wow. That silver truck is perfect. As always, amazed at the cars in your shows. Even being a four door, that 56 chevy is outstanding. Somebody put a lot of hours into the finish on that Firebird. You have made my day JO.
