If you have an automotive paint store local to you they should be able to mix up some paint that is more tolerant to solvents in a rattle can but it’ll be $30 a can at least.

I finally pulled her out of the garage and got her driving, I still have a lot to do to get it out n the dirt. The Vss was a bit of a challenge with getting the number of teeth, I thought I’d use a abs ring but the math didn’t add up for the calibration so I had to make my own

This is the tone ring I made, the speedo is spot on

Been a while since I’ve updated this, but I got the truck out to Barstow the end of April, truck did good first time out with only very minor issues. I did nail a rock and get a flat in the first 20 miles or so. But the back is painted, lights wired, and lately I’ve been working on a new stereo which will force me to do the aluminum on the inside.

Also hit the wash jump which shows me I need some shock work.

Not much of an update, but I’m slowly plugging away at the interior. I’ll finish off the inside then get back to aluminum outside, and start doing things like shock work, alignment, and new shackle bushings
