After and before...even though it is hard to see all of the damage because of the dark. But the picture with the damage gives an idea of just how far the front of the van was drug by the semi trailer. My van was right along the curb about an inch to start with on the drivers side. The new paint came out so so. I was in too much of a hurry to get it done and should of waited a day. It was cooler the next day and would of made a huge difference in the way the paint shines. Tried to buff it out 4 times today before I gave up. Its going to drive me up a wall that's for sure.

Yes you would of, and it shows...lol..

Some of us respect the fact that John allows us to keep our older vehicles on, and by doing so, I will return the favor by trying my best to keep my vehicle looking as nice as it can, and not something that should be hauling 20 cent a mile freight for Sanford and son. Where has one's pride in their ride gone anyway? I know if I was a customer paying premium prices I'd want, or expect, my freight to be moved in something somewhat respectable.Our vehicles are a reflection, a mirror of Load One.
