Your normal guy sucks, he never painted over the primer on your Tundra.

Cool guy. my uncle worked with him decades ago. theyre big down around here if youre into drag racing.

 

na hes great. but hirata is a step above.. YOU DO PAY FOR IT THOUGH. Only body shop i've been in that you can eat off the fucking floor its so clean

he was the one that ultimately sorted the tundras frame

 

The paint job on my Nissan is gonna cost a whole $300. Only takes a gallon.

 

Yea no with rust repair and what not I’m going to be AT LEAST 8 grand into this. But I’m sending the truck stripped to the bare shell for the most part. Most of the interior will still be there too, but no carpet or seats. Except the driver side seat

it’ll also be on the old frame which also helps save some money on my end.

 

Lol rust, don’t have that here.

Only rust on the entire car was under the leaking quarter windows in the cab. And it was just surface rust.

 

Morning

 

And the minute you tell them that flux core is better because it burns hotter they go apeshit. Not to mention almost all structural welding on the planet is done with flux core.

 

Yea that blew their mind lol!!! By their logic my kunckle balls should have broken off my axle already and my front frame should have fallen off, all done with a ***GASP*** 115v flux core hobart 140!! Many bus loads of nuns have been killed!!

 

Yeah a 140 amp machine burning flux core is more than adequate for truck stuff.

 

If your body/paint guy isn't a raging alcoholic in a dirty poorly lit shop, I'm sorry he's an imposter

 

Looks like it's on a suzuki samurai or geo metro frame

 

Neither of them are. Lol

 

Well the little 98 plow truck is out of commission now. The motor for the plow seized up. NICE.. maybe they’ll sell me the turd

 

Lol, it's pretty worthless now, bad frame, bad engine, interior used by grubby mechanics doing dirty plow work.... total loss
