Tell your body man that this thread might get him some more business.

Most of the paint threads on here are about trucks being in "paint prison".
Looks like you found someone that does really nice work,... in a reasonable time frame.
Congrats on the progress.
I would be stoked.

Early 8 mile run ! Mon, wed, Friday mornings! But if my bed was home I probably would have skipped my run and sat in the garage staring at it !

Not to change subject but did daughter make the money mark for the trip???.....jim

[belowme51]

mike leave the pinch. takes away from the resto part....dont start shaving stuff... I dont like it on mine either but i wanted a resto mod and it was on there when the truck was built. also the whole point of the bolt on body drop was to put the pinch on the ground...if we wanted more that we would not have spent $$$ on a very small manageagble body drop. just my 2cents. im leaving mine. oh ill send you a pic of those wheels when they get done....very first set ever done by them in those sizes.

after looking at it last night..i have decided not to shave it ! i can see on the Fesler truck how the pinch stands out but it isnt setting on the ground !
