Re: project (sweet pea)
She is not green yet....I did get the bed all blocked again tonight....So basically i am waiting on (Stan)...He is the painter at work..(.Who i gracefully bowed out and decided to let him spray it.)...To give me the green light( when blocking something to this magnitude one can get lost) or miss something) to start masking it off and getting it on rollers and into a free booth....This week we got slammed with work so getting an open booth might be a issue through out the week....So it is possible that we shoot this thing Saturday...At least that is what i hope... I am 99.9% sure its ready....just want to make sure it is.....Its been a long road....Id hoped to have this thing sprayed in two weeks but its seems it may be three.....Its close,so no sense in rushing it now....Plus its in free storage and heated 24/7 lol so i am good....

I think I spent 2 months blocking my black truck. It seemed like it was never going to end. But, in the end, it was worth the time spent. It has a wall of trophys to support it. I am building a second truck right now (Green Monster build tread) I just finished up the rear frame over the holidays and am moving on to the cab now. I am not real excited about replacing the floor, so I'v been reading alot of builds to see what everyone else did. I need to establisd a starting point, then I think I will be OK. Truck looks great. Keep up the great work! Chris |

Re: project (sweet pea)
you better tape it of as far as you can so they can roll it in the booth and start spraying at a moments notice , that way you might be plesantly supriced to come to work on say fryday and find the truck in green
