Re: my 80 build

I did word it a little confusing, the out side is getting the paint touched up and the entire truck is getting re cleared and the tailgate is the handle, trim holes, and emblem shaved, or a polished blazer band will be installed. Also the man in black in purple will be bringing my parts from summit I ordered Wednesday at midnight, some time today
