Super Cheyenne aka the "Devil Cowboy"

Well after an 8-week break from the truck progress I was able to get back on the saddle and get the firewall sprayed out this morning. It has been a long road getting here with all the rust repairs and body damage that need attention on the cab. I am at a point now where I can move to each stage on the cab and get it painted along with the front fenders and the door.

I spent a few weeks healing my lower back and taking a break. Took another three weeks to learn how to do upholstery work with my brother who visited me here in Idaho. That was a great learning experience doing all the upholstery work on my 71 Jimmy and a bench seat for the Idaho Edition truck. Spent approximately six hours a day in the shop working on upholstery the entire time he was here. I will dive into this later after I get all my pictures sorted out from all the work done.

Pict 1-Hooked up the cab onto the gantry and lifted it enough to get 8" of cribbing under the cab to make it easier to paint the bottom area of the firewall
Pict 2-Went over the cab again with soap and water and a greyScotchbrite, then rinsed and did a couple of times over with wax and grease remover
Pict 3-Taped off and almost ready for color
Pict 4-First coat of Medium Blue on the firewall
Pict 5-After a couple more coats
