s10 huh? That was my first car, and the first thing I painted. Course it was totalled 13 days after I finished it (someone made a blind left hand turn infront of me, hit at about 25mph) Course that means I don't have many pictures, I had just put the hub caps on it and took a picture, I had planned on getting it washed but...

I too am taking a break......not because I want to, I've just been so busy with other stuff. I'm hoping to find some truck time in a month or two.....Heck, I haven't even had time to get my truck out of the garage and drive it
