Project 72 - Body work pics from today
Well, now that I finished the mechanical and interior, my project 72 is now in the body shop. It will need another week and a half of body work, but at least they have started with it. They are doing things properly, by taking it down to metal. I have bought and left them with cab corner patch panels, as well as front fender patch panels. They are working from the top down, and will take the box off tomorrow to start the cab corner repairs. I am hoping to get it back fully painted in original two tone scheme with the original medium blue and white colors in base/clear - by the end of July. I will be putting on all the trim myself.

FrenchBlue72 - to answer your comment, I did have body shop problems, and after a week of sitting at another shop, I had to go in and seize my truck back and take it to the current shop. I am much happier with where it is now. It is really tuff to find a body shop that will do good work, at a reasonable pace.
