1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Frames straight far as I can tell with the alignment rack. Toss a flat bed on abs monster line the cab. That’s the plan


Clutch feels good, engines smooth and quiet. She doesn’t show her mileage

 

If you bed line that cab... so help me god, Dan.

 

Why the hell would I pay to paint this one if it’s going to be used for shit that’ll tear paint up?

 

Why do you need to paint it? Leave it alone. Just patch the part where the paint came off.

 

The front end sustained a lot of paint damage due to the fence it hit.

 

It's gotta all be one color at least, this is literally the nicest thing he owns

 

I give it 7 months before the frame rots in half.

 

it's winter and he drove it to work, id be surprised if it has a month left now

 

At least use a good bedliner damn, LineX looks good. That's the only bedliner I'd ever consider painting a cab with. The home jobs look awful, and so do the thicker bedliner with more coarse grit.

Or ya know, just spray it with single stage. I bought a gallon of single stage white for $99. It's enough to do the Nissan and then some.

 

I was happy with how my uncles jeep turned out. $200 bucks did the whole thing.


Also, I’ll never be able to get this cab corner smooth again. So paint will look odd there

 

That's fair.

 

ultimately. the one that will get all the attention body wise other than the 01 is the 98... because out of all of them. the 98 sans the frame is a 94k mile supercharged clean ass truck

this 95 and the 02, less care will be taken for the body.. its between those too that i keep for getting work done and doing stupid shit offroad in.

 

I'v got your bed ready. I preserved it in Ice and snow for you.

 

Lol!! Like Han Solo

 

Why is the poor single cab buried?

 

honestly. really leaning flat bed on this one now.

 

I just haven't had time to dig it out. I've been driving the 2nd gen mostly and the 4runner. I may get to it this Thursday, i'll put it in 4low and see what happens.

 

best way to encapsulate any moisture and seal the rust in

 

what rust?
