Nice colors!! I just got mine back from the body shop this past weekend. Same colors as yours. It looks great, its been there since last August. Only thing left is to put the back slider in mine. It looks like you started with a good solid project too!!

Hang in there Bill, It will be worth it when your finished. It's been snowing and raining out my way and we are suppose to get more snow again tonight which slows my restoration down. My body man is suppose to take the cab off within the next week. Can't wait to see yours finished. Was there a reason why you took off your custom camper emblems? I don't know whether to keep mine or not.Dave

Its coming along...Mine will be in the same process soon. I took all the trim off and will have to have someone weld to close the holes. It seems like it takes forever to get from step 1 to step 2. But Rome was not built in a day.
