Got a FREE toolbox, but in bad shape! PICS! UPDATE ON TRUCK NOW!
Ok, so my girlfriend's dad had a Delta tool box on his Ranger back in the day. He has had it sitting out behind the barn for several years now. He told me the other day I could have it if I wanted it, I went and looked at it and was like heck no! I started looking around for a low profile black diamond plate box and saw that the average one ran 289-329. I said, well, maybe I can make do with his box. I brought it home and started cleaning it on one corner with some stuff you can buy from Lowe's in the toolbox section. It worked ok, but I wanted better results. Went to AutoZone and bought some stuff called Blue Magic and a Mother's PowerBall. Well, you can see the results below. I will be adding pics of it on my truck later today, if I don't like the way it looks, being as it isn't low profile and not black, then I will just sell it. On to the pics!

I say keep it and maybe spray it iwht some bedliner kits, or flat black paint... I remeber plasti-kote sold a paint that had a rough feel to it used for alot of heavy duty stuff, and even sub boxes... I have a toolbox in my backyard from my old ranger and wanna use it but it needs new lifts and polishing wont help it because it has some weird pitting so I might paint it...
