Thanks man. I got a call this morning that my bed and cab should be painted today and that I needed to order all my body molding, window channel, rubber kit, etc... Should be delivered there by this time next week. Tomorrow they will start reassembling to get ready to shoot the silver. I think I am getting a little excited here! Pics to come this evening

No, I had to piece it together on LMC. I ordered the belt molding and the bed corner moldings. Nice looking truck in your avatar.

Here's a couple pics from today. They should spray the silver on the cab tomorrow.

Haha, yep. It's taken a long time but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Well, the paint tunnel that is!

I'm up for that! Maybe I'll have my truck semi running or have it half built

I just remembered too you have those rims and tires waiting to be installed too, getting ancy to see those on it?

[Claytona08]

I seen this hanging on the wall at the paint shop. I laughed when I read it because there were many times where I got aggravated because it was taking so long. After seeing their work and talking to people around the shop it seems they don't cut any corners or try and do the minimal it takes to get by. My only complaint is if it takes 4 months to paint my truck just tell me that! lol.

I actually called the tire shop to make sure they hadn't sold my rims and tires. I haven't talked to them in 2-3 months or so and wanted them to know that I didn't forget I had them there. The owner insisted that it was ok and he had plenty of room to store them for me.

[Claytona08]

Minor setback. I went and looked at the bed Friday and there were six screw holes in the bed rail where the camper mounted that they were suppose to weld up prior to painting the bed. Well today they are sanding off some paint and clear to weld the holes up. Sucks but it has to be done.

On a positive note: They are going to be putting the front fenders, hood & doors back on the truck today. Plus all my trim was delivered Friday and the door handles came in today. The front bumper should be delivered Wednesday.

I drove by Jeff's today. I was tempted to stop and get some spy shots lmao

I wish you would've! They hadn't done much on it this week except fixing the issue I found with the bed. I know yesterday they had the doors back on the truck but that's it.

[SeTx67]

If I would've had more time I could've stopped. I was trying to get out to mitchells saw and supply and grab some ammo so I could take the nephew shooting tomorrow

[Claytona08]

Called the paint shop yesterday. They had the doors put back on, front fenders and the hood all on and aligned. They are suppose to shoot the silver on the cab today, set the bed and get all my body lines straight and get ready to shoot the whole truck. He said that the paint should be done early next week (I've heard that before, several times)! After that they have to wet sand and buff the truck and put all the trim back on. I'm going to try and get some pics tomorrow!
