Just finished reading thru this thread, and WOW. Nice job!! Very cool truck you have there.
I am interrested in doing the welding and some body work on my next project. How did you go about learning the process of dent removal (hammer/dolly stuff) as well as using filler and what products to use and in what order? Also what grit paper to use to acheive a given result? Keep it up, nice work.

Thanks! As far as learning to weld and do body work, I read alot and then just started practicing. Start on a spare fender or something and keep practicing until you are confident. I would check with your local auto paints store for products but I personally like Evercoats Rage Gold. Keep in mind that you have to grind the welds and sand the filler, so you really can't mess things up too badly. Good luck and thanks for the compliment!
