Far from perfect, but not bad for a thirty dollar sprayer and BEHR paint. I spent the past week sorting out my brake issue. Another new master cylinder, bleeding, adjusting, bleeding, adjusting,adjusting, adjusting, and finally got it right. Just got back in from testing and its good to go...

Coming back together And pretty close to where it sits today

I knocked all the loose stuff off, rough sanded the yellow, used a case of primer sealer, and then sprayed the green.

Everything was school bus yellow all the rubber, cowls, everything...Except for the back of the fording cover I took the plate and had the color matched. Ive never even thought of painting a truck before, so I just kept reading all the threads on here and decided to give it a shot.

I need your opinion please. So I was out for a cruise yesterday and the motor started to knock loudly, and run like crap. Ended up breaking a connecting rod. Here's what I need help with, what should i do? Another 350? New crate motor or used? 12valve cummins? Find a flathead? I'm open to...

New master cylinder and a few new brake lines installed, thanks for the info Rusty. Bled the brakes, drove it around back roads by the shop, everything worked great. Motor ran strong, brakes felt firm, and than came the big question. Should I put it on the trailer and bring it home, or get in it...
