Young Whipper Snapper

Recently came back off deployment, bought my grandfathers 1993 toyota 4x4 pickup. He was original owner, currently has 94XXX original miles on its 22RE engine. Wonderful little truck, drove it from NM to Ft. Hood texas and it took the roads like a champ. No problems on it, i recently changed its 18 year old stock white paintjob to a "Hot Rod Black". Dont bash on my vocab or spelling im new to this whole thing. Some upgrades i would like to do to my truck would be, a light bar, bigger tires, and a lifted suspension.



This photo is how it looked while i was sanding the car to be painted black.










This is how it turned out after we shot it with a couple coats of the "Hot Rod Black".





COMMENTS ARE WELCOME, YES...EVEN THE BAD ONES. LEMME KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK! =)

Thanks! =) I didn't know what color to paint the truck, i didnt want any GLOSSY type of paint, since its an off road type vehicle I decided to go a flat black. It also has a 12" kicker sub, and a touch screen kenwood dvd reciever inside! much more goodies to be added!
