Thanks! Getting hauled to my buddy's shop in Moriarty first thing tomorrow morning... If all goes well and we are motivated enough, it may be brown by the end of the weekend! I can't wait... :metal:

Very busy weekend... Friday evening went and picked up a loaner trailer and loaded her up. Left to my buddy Abe's shop in Moriarty at 6am Saturday morning. About 50 miles east of Albuquerque... :ito:

After a Bud Light break to let the primer dry, we did a final sanding/cleaning... and the most fun part began. We used every bit of daylight God gave us on Saturday...and energy. I left Moriarty back to Albuquerque around 8:30pm. The best Cinco de Mayo ever.... :ito::chevy::ito::metal:

Sunday morning I headed back to Moriarty with the intentions of loading up the truck and bringing her back home. The paint was still a little too soft for us to manhandle the bed back in place. She stayed in the shop... I was able to put some pretty stuff back on though.

Meanwhile, up in Santa Fe... my buddy Danny ("D-Ray") was busy striping away on the tailgate. Here's a pic of the tailgate of my truck back in 1982, when it was my brother's truck... what I had him model it after. :) I'm VERY HAPPY!!!! :metal:

Took the words right out of my mouth! Man that makes me want to head to the A&W for a tall frosty one. You have friends and family with some nice skills, that's for sure.

Are the bellflowers going back on?

Yes they are. I may redo the exhaust after a while. Those tips are showing some age and the cherry bombs are getting pretty burnt out.
