Re: 84 s10.
dude, you don't lay body filler over flat black! take it down to metal on the bed, and scuff the rollpan, then use fiberglass to mold it first, and body filler to finish off, otherwise I promise you that will crack out in 3 months.

Re: 84 s10.
no actually weld it, grind the welds down, and then put fiberglass on it, and never ever put bondo or anykind of body filler on top of paint, and since you didn't scuff it your not getting SHIT for adhesion it's gonna be ****ed up in the end

Re: 84 s10.
Well i boguht a fiberglass kit so i'm gonna knock out the bondo and try n do the glass instead of bondo. on another note im still waiting for my amp to come in the mail so havent got the stereo hooked up completey, tho i did get my ps2 in there and itskinda fun to play games in my truck lol. Also bought some 10mm LED's and put one in each headlight and got some 4MM LED's for the back lights, there green and look pretty cool too have them on a toggle switch for now, i kind of want to get a relay or something that makes them blink but i dont know how i'd go about that? any ideas?? try and get some pics tomrorw.

Re: 84 s10.
I agree it does look dented in the pic but it's just the angle. doesnt seem dented to me in person.
