Decided to fix up my truck
Hey everybody. I've had my truck for over 5 years now and have beat it all to heck. I"ve recently decided it would be in my best interest to take good care of it. So now I'm starting a long process of fixing all the gigantic dents, giving it a good paint job, and making the interior a little easier on the eyes. My truck is actually a Mazda B2500, but as you all probably know it is just a ranger rebranded. Most of the time I have to look up parts for a ranger to find them. Anyway I'll take some pictures so you can see what 18 year old me did to a perfectly good truck and post them tomorrow. Thanks for all the help in advance!!!

My friends have always made fun of my truck for being a POS but I never really took it to heart. A couple weeks ago a guy told me he wouldn't be caught dead in it cause it was so ugly. i felt really bad about what I had done to it. When I bought it, it had some scratches from being a work truck, then i ran it into a stump and put a massive dent in the front drivers side fender. Then scraped some trees and tore up the passengers side bed fender. It has had a rough life since i bought it. It has done a lot for me and its time to repay the debt.

oops sorry. totally forgot i was going to post pics.
this is my truck!!
this is the gigantic dent from a stump
to show you how deep it is
the dent in the bed
this was a pretty rusty floor about a week ago. i sanded most of it off.
this is the bed with a walmart outside storage box as a toolbox. im too cheap to buy the real deal. also shows where the bed liner scratched most of the paint off
and a final profile pic
does anyone think there is hope for that front fender or should i head to a junkyard and buy a new one? I'd like to fix it if i can cause there isnt a lot of money coming in right now but if i have to replace it i will.
