    That's a cool truck I'm a big mopar guy so I know all about the lil red express, Midnite Express and the Warlock trucks. I was born in 1979 and I have a 1977 Dodge W100 Warlock that I'm working on and a 79 Aspen R/T that has the E58 police 360 4 bbl in it

      @@MaffettMotorwerks I saw a mopar box in the background on the shelf, looked like the same box my nos tailgate stripe kit came in. Very cool to have the correct air cleaner and stacks and chrome steps. They are the first to go missing. The dash/ glovebox also looked really nice, a hard item to replace!

    Why would you "wash" this thing with water bottles and microfiber?

    • @MaffettMotorwerks
      @MaffettMotorwerks  3 роки тому

      We did a pre wash with a power washer but this was just to try to put direct pressure on the spots of the panel we were getting ready to buff.

      There is a-lot of age to this paint deep pits on the roof and bed. If we do paint it will be a complete disassembly and respray. But with this buff we are definitely not in a rush to do so, it looks really cool. Thanks for watching!
