Pat I hate you for making me want to do more to the old red farm truck! But both look VERY good. Fiddy looks better in the sunlight than the preview pics that you texted, btw.

OK...I gotta ask;
What's with the masking tape?
Keep the wax off the plastic?

That textured cladding on the Escapes is the worst to keep it from turning chalky when wax gets on it.
