Thanks for all the compliments, I certainly do not deserve them and feel very honored to have everyone looking at my project. I forgot to mention that I smoothed all the welds on the boxing plates on the bottom side with a flap disc on the grinder. Made it look a lot nicer. And if any of you are wondering why I painted the bottom of the frame last it is because that is the part that you will see when the truck is put together. My dad, mom, younger brother and I managed to flip this super heavy frame

while the paint was still wet so there shouldn't be any overspray on it anywhere. I DID get a few tiny runs tho in the paint itself that I need to try to get out but I don't know how.
