Re: truck box
lolol OK yea yea I will take some pictures. And yes I do have a lot of free time I got shoved out the door into retirement about 3 years ago and now that I have got my boat about where I want for this year (is it ever done ) so I am fixing up my old truck cause I am to cheep to buy a new one. Its a old 97, S 10 with 190 K miles, and it runs just fine and I expect to get at least another 80 k on it and if you really want the list , its a new midnight blue paint job ( dont have a before pic of the truck it was butt ugly black peeling paint ), new vinyl floor may instead of carpet, the seats were redone last year when I set it up to tow my toon along with a rear gear swap from a 3.73 to a 4.10 and a power chip implant on the 2.2 ,4 cylinder that brought it from 118 hp to 180 and 4 wheel disk breaks for stopping power and I am still getting 22 mph
draging a 20 foot toon at 60 to 65
And back to the project at hand the buffing wheel and the stick polishing compound is doing the trick I spent about 2 hours on the box this evening and about hafe of it back to a mirrow finish. I am sort of working my way through this as a experiment on this comming winters project of polishing my logs
I did find a trick this evening it is a lot easer to polish out the diamond plate in rows at the same angle and not trying to swap it back and fourth and work it about 1 foot sections at a time and 1 row at a time.
