That looks sweet! I forget seeing pics of your truck, like the newer stepside bed on the old truck. Now you just need a stock rear bumper. Such a great functional stock bumper you can stand on and stuff, not like the 80s era one.
 
Looks nice, just take your time with the sanding block if you want the final coat to come out nice.
 
i just used scotch brite and a prep spray on the bed and spray can primered it, the cab needs to be redone since it was done 2 years ago..

Never liked the newer beds mixed with the old cabs.
 
some do some dont......each their own.......not sure on the color, i thought hot rod black , olive drab , burnt orange.............the hot rod black is catching me more tho
 
Your truck looks frickin cool dude! Just remember when you paint it.............Black shows everything. A color such as white or yellow hides alot. Just my .02. I love black myself, every new truck I ever bought off the lot was black. Just hard to hide body work and what-not once they're older.
 
yea thats why it wouldnt be gloss black, prob if i went with black it would be satin....im not sure tho what to do tho, i like charcoal, then burnt orange...im just not sure. for now tho its primer black...lol......and thankyou
 
I painted my k5 with flat black epoxy paint was cheap, and I loved the look. eventually my truck will get that paint job inside, and out...

I've got a bad attitude because I'd say put another coat on of what you got, and leave it alone!!! it's perfect lol
 
i should do it that way but i have new fenders, doors and a cowl hood still in boxes....
