Your progress looks good. That black paint job you shot on that truck looks real good from the pic... looks real straight. Black must be the hardest color to paint since the bodywork must be perfectly straight. I gotta question: Do you block sand or ??? around the door gaps? For instance, the edges around the gap between the door and the front fender on these trucks just slightly curves in (towards the gap). I've heard of some using a hammmer and dolly to eliminate that slight curve.

BTW, nice cabinets.
