Paint my Tacoma with horrible purple paint this vintage Toyota livery. The picture bellow shows how bad my clear coat is gone as of right now. I have the idea that I can do this myself doing the $50 paint job. I'd start with the hood since it's the worst and do a base coat of white then mix up the yellow orange and red. Then slowly do every other part of the truck.

For those that don't know the $50 paint job is just rolling on diluted rustolium and sanding a ton between every layer. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Gige. The neighbor's cat. Likes cars, trucks, and naps. Was really annoying when I had a convertible and the top would collect cat hair.

I need warmer weather. I think it's supposed to get warmer in about 2 weeks. Maybe I'll do it my birthday weekend when my entire family is away. I'm turning 18 and they expect me to throw a wild party while they're gone. I'll just paint the truck.

I don't know that it's possible to approve of this more completely.

I don't care enough to know if this is a Camry or Corolla but if they sold it bone stock with this livery I would buy it and never complain about owning a boring car. Manual would be nice.

That is an awesome livery. Makes me want to buy a RC short course truck and paint it like that, but im not a good painter.

buy a bag of old die casts at a garage sale and sand them to metal with a dremel and learn from there. Paint is fun. Even if you mess up it's still fun to try it out. my taco can't get much worse so I'm going for it.

Been wanting to do my Camry up in this, my favorite livery, but I am afraid my kids and wife would disown me, and never ride in the car even again.... that's a BAD thing, right?

you could always just dip it, and remove it when you crave the affection of others. If your kids disown you for having cool race car paint then I'd worry about them first. If anything you should disown them for not liking your paint.
