Looks awesome! I hate the raised lip around the booster. So what's this stuff you speak of?

Oh no, what a great job you've done.  She'd been a beauty the way you've been at her.

Have it shrink wrapped, like they do to winterize boats in the off-season.

LOl I had one too to paint the 84 c10 under it actually held up thru alot around here, high winds and heavy rain, but I had 4 foot roof bolts they use in the mines drove into the ground at opposing angles on each side and then had the center of the wall where  it attached to the roof tied to the truck or car with ratchet straps to the frame, and the end ratchet strapped to my fence. it would lift and wobble and move all the time sometimes pops a leg off, but one day it came completely undone. The poll scratched my truck bad, put some dents in it and busted the ds ventvisor, took out some paint around the headlight on my monte carlo and took out the wifes back glass, costs us $300 for a new back window. All the joiners up top bent or ripped apart, and now it's laying in the building.
