Found my west Texas ranch work horse that was put to pasture.
Will be ready to roll As Is in a few months, as I got busy working on my son's 1999 Tahoe. Last of the 2 door Tahoes.

White is not the best looking patina because paint look more like a flake paint going away than faded patina like blue, green,grey or yellow...but still love my old truck anyway! :)
