Sand sand sand your truck all through the day wearily wearily wearily to finish is but a dream.

Know what you going thru Mark and I sanded today...Jim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

if you are leary of spraying metalic how about a nice sold color with pearls in the clear?
really metalic isn't much different to spray than solid, just practice some on vertical surfaces. the horizontal stuff is easy.if you can spray the primer withouty runs then you can probably spray the metalic, just beware of the overlaps so you don't get blushing.

Just a little up date.
Finally got the bed where I'm going to live with it.
Need to sand it with some 180 then another coat of epoxy and final sanding I hope but that will be for another day.
This is a case of ambition over ability. Wish I knew what I know now when I first started the bed.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Wow Kim, that is incredibly COOL! I didn't know you were doing a custom bed. What are your plans for fenders? Stock? Widened stock? Full custom? Can't wait to see more!
Best, Dan

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks Dan.
Stock fenders.
The bed is the same width as a step side bed. The fenders will help to hide my amateur body work.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Kim, looks great, can't wait to see it with the fenders on...Jim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

I think it looks good. Amature body work, I dont think so, it will look cool when its done.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks guys.
Fenders are next to be worked on. I have one that is new and the other is in real good shape.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

:agree::agree:

You're being too humble. It looks great. Either that or you're a pro Photoshopper!:lol:

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Not too bad right now.

No photoshop just hours upon hours of sanding.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Body work looks great to me!!!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks.
It's not perfect but I'm happy with where it's at now. Being such large flat panels the sun has an effect on them.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

As you always say Kim, "Looks great!" :)

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Looks cool!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Kim!
Good to see an update again!!

You don't have to pull yourself down at the work you do, you do amazing work!!
I'm not good at bodywork and it shows, but yours look just great in my eyes!!
Love to see it with fenders on, I think it looks cool!!

Hope your body keeps up with you and see regular updates again!!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks guys.
I am real happy with it and it gives me the incentive to keep hitting it hard.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Nice to see an update! Looking good! that is going to be a short-short bed...;) cant wait to see it finished

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks.
Bed is same length as a stock short bed. I think the angle makes it look shorter.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Just a few pics on how my bed looks on the truck.
Only one fender on as I'm still working on the other one.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

looking really good Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Hey Kim, nice bed for sure. great sheet metal work, very creative. I may have missed it along the way, but what color are you painting the truck? Also, what size wheels will you have on the backside? Looks great
