This vehicle was done as a surprise for the owners wife while they were out of town. He had just purchased a new truck and this was going to be given to his wife for her to use. It was in need of a very thorough cleaning prior to being used by her. The paint was in very poor condition and the trim was faded. The interior was also in need of a very good cleaning.
