[83 yoter]

Hey folks. Just joined a few days ago. I've got a 1983 4wd Toyota pickup with the trusty 22r. I got her in 2001 in pretty rough shape. My father and I restored her about 12 years ago and since then I've done several upgrades. Unfortunately due to a defect in the paint we used it didn't take long before cracking and fraying occurred so she's starting to look somewhat rough again.

Fix it with rustoleum

Hehe yeah really! I'm from north Idaho, rustoleum would probably make my pickup look classy around here.

this is its current condition. after abuse and a defect in the paint its looking a little rough again. plus a few cancer spots have developed that ill need to get at quick before it spreads and starts eating away at the bed!
