....got the firewall wet sanded and polished.

[mooseknuckles]

put the cab back on..bolted up the master cylinder and PB hood hinges. and also polished the door jambs...

[mooseknuckles]

Saturday I sanded the inside of the cab to get it ready for primer, and started working on the doors...they weren't in as good of shape as I remembered leaving them.

This weekend I got the doors primed and painted, next weekend I will get them cut and polished. Wish I had the other door panel to match this one....but I have an idea to fix that.

[Bomp]

Doors came out sweet.
Looking forward to seeing it when finished.

[cornerstone]

Man I love your color choice.... Im also a bit envious of your skills too. I hope to be able to paint my own stuff that nice in the future.

[mcbassin]

Is it that obvious?...lol. I've always been into cars and trucks but this is by far the most elaborate build yet.

I believe it works with or without a booster.

thanks! it's been a battle but I think I'm winning, I learned a lot along the way as well.

[mooseknuckles]

...started polishing one of the doors.

[mooseknuckles]

...and got some primer on the inside of the cab. I hope to spray it next weekend if all goes well.

[mooseknuckles]

So I didn't get the cab painted this weekend, the lads at the local auto parts were struggling with their paint mixing equipment, and couldn't mix my paint. I was kinda bummed about that...but anyway I sanded and primed the door panels and now they're ready for paint. also got my new gauge panel and when I get some paint I'll spray it too...sure hope next weekend goes better!

[mooseknuckles]

Had a snow day today, so I went first thing this morning and picked up some paint....not sure if I like the color, looks very orange, and the camera only makes it worse. I like the contrast, but it may be a bit much. may have to tone it down some....
