yeah nothing cheap about it. you want a good paint job, you'll pay for it. gonna be an adventure as I've never painted a whole truck before, but I have a good deal of experience with partial painting, plus a phobia of letting someone I don't know at my truck, so I feel confident enough to save myself the money and gain that much more experience.

I'll be careful with that dent and hope for the best. I'm tempted to make a mesh gate for her anyway....I love the look of her with the gate down.

and thank you much for the compliment.

she's a good worker

See the one on mine? I've not seen very many that haven't been replaced I think it's neat. Also on the frame if you look into the wheel well on the left side on the back you might see a Dsa sticker that days the build date

well who knows it may have been. sticker could have been taken off though.....maybe I did myself and don't remember lol. I'm after taking off every non-important sticker off her. as an aside, I do know she was built in ontario.
