Menard's Morton now a Milk Delivery truck

Well done, thank you for sharing.  The white external visor above the windshield looks professional. So much better than taking something out of the box and placing it on a layout.  John in Lansing, ILL

Looks fantastic great job

Great job.   I don't know if I'd have the patience to do the masking on something that small.  How did you mask out the chrome pieces on the cab?

Nice! 

You did great.

I have a Menard's truck that I want to re-paint as well.  I, too, would love any advice you have on masking, taking apart, etc.  It looks very nice!

Thank you for the great feedback all. There is little masking required when repainting these vehicles.  The only parts you need to mask are the mud flaps.  The cabs chrome parts, headlights, and mirrors all come off easily. You just need to push them out from inside the cab shell.  The visor is a separate peice and the horns are actually are attached to the windshield and that comes out very easily. I am super inpatient so if I can do it so can anyone. I was going for a black and white cow look.. the hood was a toss up between what is on it and a decal that looks like a splash of milk. 

  One thing I forgot to mention is that the original paint should be stripped off the cab only and for best results strip the paint.  I sprayed the cab and then baked it in the oven at 175 degrees for one hour and fifteen minutes.  I used the pictures tool to hold the shell while painting and baking.  I used three coats of Rustoleum 2x gloss black.
