Re: project (sweet pea)
Got the passenger side Fender on today,along with the cowl....I still need to do some (anal as my wife says) tweaking on the cowl....The drivers side has a too big for me gap to the fender....And i think it will drive me crazy so i will see what kinda tricks i can pull....? Also the upper portion of the cab will be the silver....I edged the cowl this way so everything close to the firewall will be done,when i paint the whole truck....I will just back tape it....Anyways here are a few pics..........

Re: project (sweet pea)
George Yes it is.....ANd very Moisture Sensitive..........I would not Recommend Spraying this in a Garage....Trust me....I had to Edge my Parts in Twice......An Enviroment that you can control is a WAY better approach if you ask me........I am not saying it cant be Sprayed at home.....But its not an easy chore.......This stuff is very touchy.lol.....Everything has to be perfect....Before Application.

Re: project (sweet pea)
Small update...After dicking with a used and Junk 3 inch cowl hood. I decided to just go with my factory hood for now....There was tons of dents in the cowl hood,(which i fixed) and after what seemed too be a whole day on trying to get it to line up. I just was not happy so i made my mind up and what do you know had the stocker fitting pretty good in about 5 mins...There is still some adjusting to get everything right but its close enough for paint( its getting painted apart)....Also got the bed on, me and a buddy bout crapped our pants but its on there.......Anyways, plans are to get everything lined up,and take it to the shop for a few weeks of blocking.........Here are some pics

Re: project (sweet pea)
FYI, hate to bring it to your attention but someone spraypainted your license plate...
that stock hood looks good but I think it would look good with a small cowl hood as well..

Re: project (sweet pea)
LOL Bill your right,And she is setting on an incline so the rear is not setting the way it does on flat ground,Mike dude i tried,, I bought a used hood (goodmark) off C.L and something is up with it? I think its a reject or ? its so off....And my factory fit with NO mods ir adjustments, Geoff....You understand lol, Its making me crazy at this point,all the patience i had seems so be fading, but i will take it slow and do it right.71tahoe, You can think Geoff( C10-driver) for the color inspiration.

Re: project (sweet pea)
I'm not old, I'm experienced
But really, there are only a couple long bed that I like, and I give their owners the most crap about them
