The truck is painted!!!
Well I finished up most of the body work today, I just have a little bit on the passenger door area but the rest of the truck is painted!!! I also installed the chrome trim rings on the wheels and painted them as well. I just need to mount my new winch bumper and finish the one door and it's DONE!!!! (well the paint/body is lol)

Re: The truck is painted!!!
Looks good. I am glad you got rid of the old (new???) bed.
Do you have a shop that you painted it in?

Re: The truck is painted!!!
Thanks, I snapped a side shot with the wheels painted and trim rings on. I'm debating if I want to use the center caps or not.
Ya my apartment neighbors like the truck, one guy stopped by yesterday and was like "I love walking by this thing everyday and seeing the progress you have made!". I used BLP Mobile Paints Olive Drab Green in a spray can for the whole truck. Down the road I plan on sprayin the truck for real with this same color. The paint is meant for outdoor use on hunting equipment and such so they said it should last fairly well. The truck is a 67' K10 with a 350 crate motor, SM420 with T221 transfer case (just bought a divorced NP205 that I will be swapping in later), closed knuckle D44 and 12 bolt still, riding on stock K5 rally's with 33x12.50 BFG All-Terrains, Rancho 4" lift. I just finished the inside with new carpet, 07' dodge seats, new gauges and such. This is the bumper that will be going on, it's a Warn bumper for a bronco, but it was FREE ![]() ![]()

Re: The truck is painted!!!
Are you gonna fill in the rear side marker holes since it's a 67 or leave them open?? I vote fill them in, but that's just me.

Re: The truck is painted!!!
Well I test fitted the winch bumper today and I don't really like the fit (good thing it was free haha) so I decided to keep the stock bumper for now. I don't plan on purchasing a winch for awhile anyways so no biggie. Here are some pics with the front end finished
I'm going to get some marker lamps to throw in there but not wire them in, just for looks. I don't feel like doing anymore body work for now lol.
