You need two tools in life: duct tape and WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, you use duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, you use WD-40.

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Almost ready to paint? Do you have the sail panel custom cab trim for it? I decided to buy new ones for my truck, I have the used ones I had bought. Give me a call if interested.

It's not ready for paint yet. Still waiting on my buddy to finish the door skins. Hopefully soon.

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Forgot to post this. We got the truck home from the bodyman a couple of weekends ago! Looks awesome! The door skins are in primer, along with the fender tips and a few dents Abe fixed on the bed. I snapped a couple of pics, but I haven't downloaded them from the camera. I'll post them soon! We are very happy to have her home...

We're not sure yet...on either one of those questions. It's hard for her to decide a color.

Cool! We'll be out of town this weekend, but maybe one of these upcoming weekends we can cruise over to your place to get a ball park figure. We want a two-tone with side trim on this. She's leaning towards a 'Cascade Green' and Pearl white, with a fawn or pewter interior... That could change though. It would be nice to get an idea for a price.... I've also comtemplated doing it myself, but it's really difficult without a place to do it... besides, she really wants this thing pretty close to perfect.

This is the two-tone scheme we want:
