hello keith if you go to my post #87 you will see what i used to do the frame and i also used it on the tubz , i love that stuff , i may do engine bay with it as im not looking for the smooth paint finish in this build , this stuff is semi gloss and it leaves a small texture look to it at the same time , may not be for everybody but it works for me , here are some pix and my first cut !!!!

raull · 03-18-2012, 03:25 PM

finally done with the right side , my pops its here going overboard with the engine hoist ( lol ) so he's keeping me away from truck , the truck now drop another inch or so , the bag is bottom out now , that all she sang , im good with that , still some triming issues then im good , some pix

Thanks Raull, I went back and looked. I was thinking about doing the same thing painting the tubz on the inside with bedliner. Tubz are looking good in there.
