Very nice Jan. I like the old hooks in the garage door frame trick.

Re: Jans 53
Wow! Those reflections in that panel are arrow straight. That takes a ton of time (and talent) to do that well.
Awesome work! Stephan |

Re: Jans 53
Wow, that's just primer so far? What was your choice? I'm still deciding on a good glossy primer so I can see the reflections before shooting color.

Re: Jans 53
With as slick as that primmer is there is no doubt that the paint job will look fantastic. Looking great!!

Re: Jans 53
Very nice....there are NO shortcuts to a great paint job. I don't think most people realize the amount of labor/skill involved.
Nice job Marc

Re: Jans 53
the reflection does not lie.
Nice work, I can see the hooks in your garage door frame that you hung the truck doors from. ............ keep it going

Jan , , , , "OCD" (lol) . . . . . that sounds like my wife (Diana) . . .
but, sometimes , I change it too "QVC" (inside joke) ............. Your Body-Work looks 1st class (from an ol' bodyman's point of view) . . . . . and, what's the "rip" . . . . . (do it everyday for 10-12 years) . Nobody like 'sanding' . . . . . . . . . but, you'll like the 'results' . again , Great job . . . . I'm watching & learning (more) . later , jim |

Re: Jans 53
So now I have all 4 fenders the cab and hood sanded. I will go over them and look for small flaws then on to bedsides. Tomorrow morning going to take a trip to summit and pick up a tailgate, front bed panel and maybe a new grill.
Has anyone seen the goodmark tailgate? the price difference isn’t much between it and the mar-k but they don’t have the mar-k in stock....is it worth paying shipping and waiting for the mar-k? Also anyone have the OER grill? Any info on quality? Now I’ll leave you with today’s picture of my OCD session.
