Thanks fellas. I think it’ll look good when it’s all done. I definitely learned a few things that will come in handy when I paint the exterior.

Re: 67 SWB First Build

Made it up to the shop this weekend. Had enough time to spray the bed. Unfortunately I’ll be redoing the bedsides. There was some orange peel in the clear and after wet sanding, it was evident i didn’t put enough clear down. I’ll more than likely leave the front bed panel alone. It turned out decent. Hoping to get everything painted over the next month or so.

Re: 67 SWB First Build

Bedsides sanded down. I decided to leave the roll pan alone as well. I seemed to hit that area with plenty of clear. I’ll plan on reshooting later this week!

Re: 67 SWB First Build

Cab and bed in paint, finally! Turned out great for the most part, other than a few runs where i laid the clear on a little too thick. There is also 1 spot where it looks like i missed scuffing in a nook and cranny. I should be able to fix it with little issue. Looking forward to getting the rest done soon!

Re: 67 SWB First Build

Beautiful truck man, very nice. One suggestion for your consideration . . . I love the fuel cap, and actually did the exact same thing/location on my 62 LB. However, I would suggest if you can, or while you can - order some more of those pop-up screw in caps. Mine lasted great for about a month and then would no longer work. I had to change mine out to something different. Hopefully your experience is better than mine, but trust me it will be worth the extra cost to have 1 or 2 extras lying around.
Keep up the awesome work!

Doug
