Thought i would post this here to see if any fellow fisherman or their friends could do some work on my truck in or near the Modesto area. I have a 95 Chevy ext cab that i am getting fixed up for my son. It needs some sanding, and body work and Paint. It is currently white and will repaint white. no interior bed work. This truck has over 325,000 miles so i don't want to put a bunch of money into it. just get it looking decent. Shoot me a PM if interested.

Good luck....I am in Fresno or I would try to help you out. A bunch of money means different things to different people. If it was me I would take off all the trim myself ie lights, door handles, grill, bumpers, moldings, door glass run channels, basically anything that could get overspray (it all comes off very easy) on it or would need to be masked and then take it to Maaco, or similar shop. Don't get the cheapest paint job. Get a base coat clearcoat or it will look really bad in a matter of months. Should be less than a grand (unless every panel has dents) if you don't paint the inside of the bed, door jams, under hood ect. If you think that is too much money leave it the way it is and let the kid work for it. I am in the business and have seen way too many horror stories of what happens when guys do side work in their garage.
