Although it may be hard to tell any difference from these photos to the ones I posted a couple months ago...but I have made progress. I have purchased an air compressor, HVLP spray gun, and all the air compressor extras and learned to shoot paint...well at least epoxy primer and surfacer for now. What you are looking at are the first photos after filling all the trim hole imperfections and block sanding the first coat of surfacer. Next step is to spray a guide coat and look for any more imperfections. I am pretty sure I have it in real good shape, one more coat of surfacer (maybe two) should get me paint ready...I hope.

I hope to have the freshly painted cab on the frame by months end!

I will now be picking surfacer/bondo boogers out of my nose for two days!
