They’re awesome. Just put a pair on my Blazer.

Doors painted. Tail gate painted.

Now to remove the windshield and paint the remaining "tub" of the truck.

Nice progress!

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-02-2020, 11:17 AM

It's definitely looking good. I can't wait to see it done

Ptjsk · 05-06-2020, 11:50 PM

Top off preparing for paint!

The windshield frame looks fantastic, as well as the rear of the Jimmy. This includes the back of the tub and inside both fender-wells behind the rear wheel.

Good luck w the spray. Do your bed rails also have holes to accommodate a double wall top?

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-07-2020, 08:33 AM

windshield frame is in great shape. This is going to look awesome

Not really sure where these would be, but the only holes on top are the ones that hold the current single wall top down.

Thanks Bud! I'm hoping to have it painted by the end of next week.

Pat

**DeadheadNM** · 05-07-2020, 10:37 AM

The holes would be atop the bedrails near those for the 1x wall top - like a duplicate row of holes but without the associated captured washers. It seems like later 72 Flint K5s had bedsides with only provisions for 1x wall tops unlike earlier and St Louis examples.

Here's a few pics Pete!

**DeadheadNM** · 05-08-2020, 07:18 AM

Thanks! That’s great. No holes for a double wall top. Helps to fill in a small puzzle piece.

Ptjsk · 05-08-2020, 11:02 PM

Top of windshield frame shows it's in great shape.

Bottom is equally clean too!

Pat

Ptjsk · 05-14-2020, 10:33 PM

Windshield ready, door jambs ready, rear portion of bed ready, and right side panel of bed ready for primer!

I should finish the left side tomorrow.

Damn.....this paint and body is a lot of work!

Pat

Ptjsk · 05-16-2020, 10:49 PM

First coats of primer a few days ago.

A good solid day of blocking, and then two additional coats of primer.

We'll see how the next blocking comes out, but hopefully it will be the final block.

Pat

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-17-2020, 06:16 AM

Looks good, I hope the blocking works out.

Ptjsk · 05-21-2020, 07:30 PM

AAAAHHHHH!!!!! Finally finished with paint!

**DeadheadNM** · 05-21-2020, 07:31 PM

Nice! Congrats.

jimbosprint · 05-22-2020, 12:50 AM

Excellent!

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-22-2020, 08:24 AM

Looks good, I want to see it back together.....

Thanks Dale! I just have too many projects!! LOL!

Pat

Ptjsk · 05-26-2020, 09:20 AM

Cut and rubbed the paint. Turning out extremely well.

Replaced the simulated wood in the tailgate too.

Pat

jimbosprint · 05-26-2020, 11:46 AM

That looks great!
