But doing it very well, I may add.

That looks absolutely beautiful.

Rating all day, so I cleared stuff in the garage and shed (well, moved it about)
Now building a replica vermin hunting rifle.

Wish I had you guys' skills at getting these things done so nicely.

Your paint looks flawless from here.

This was a long time coming, I can't even remember how long this cab has been off the frame but it should go quick now. I think the biggest hold up was the fear of painting but I have that monkey off my back now. Just mocked up the inners , made sure everything fits and off to the powder coaters.

Sorry...... But I have to reply again, having seen the next upload of photos.

This is just insanely good.

Not much more to add.

concentrating on getting the interior finished, so I can bolt the front end back on and start it to make it easier to move around.

x2! Builds like these sometimes make me want mine to be just as "perfect." I admire the thought that goes into making everything as accurate as possible.

Looks Fantastic! I like the body color over the undercoating. Stealing that idea.
