Cool, before/during pics?
Line up with the door pretty well? How are your torsion boxes? |

Re: Some new progress pics...
Don't know how doors line up yet but the torsion boxes were rock solid with on surface type rust.

That thing is coming right along... it's always nice to have a good body man working on your truck, and it looks like his is doing an excellent job bring that tub back to life.

This is my brother's Blazer. I mentioned to you once that when your in Poplar Bluff, you need to look him up. Better than sitting in the Drury Inn! Don, Mr. Pennington can really work some magic. That has got to be some of the cleanest repairs I have EVER seen! Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!! Yeah, I kind of like that color too

It's not 'exactly' the same, has alot more pop to it than the factory paint ever did. If that makes any sense. Close enough so that whoever saw it, remembered the color from the day though.
