Helping where I can and pics. I have been really under the weather here lately so I haven't been able to do much. But I will be doing alot of the sanding and disassembly work and that type of stuff. I hope to learn alot at the same time. We were talking about it and this is probably somewhere in the 500-600 range for how many vehicles he's done.

Yep I'm lucky to be having him paint it. Got the fenders off tonight, first priority was them getting the head done on his daughters kia. Probably do some more on it tomorrow.

TheSmokinStroke2002 · Apr 9, 2013

3 out of 4 doors are all wet sanded, both front fenders are very close to being done. Tomorrow I'm gonna get started working on the tailgate while he touches up some primer. Got all 4 doors gutted today too. It's getting there!

I'm jealous! Well, I'd be happy with my cab corners being done.

Yes sir I do. I am also buying back my clear mirror lenses so I will have all clear lights up front and I will just leave the 08 tail lights red.

Looks nice. You should pull the back window so you can paint behind that rubber gasket. Seriously takes 5 mins to remove, and most of that is removing interior trim.

I thought about that but the tape he used to mask it off actually pulls the trim up a little so some paint can get behind it. Don't ever plan on having it out so I'm not to worried about it.
