It's awesome when prime is on - it really makes you see all the hard work paying off. Keep up the good progress.

I just finished painting/clearing the cab interior.
I'll post a pic when I get the paper off the portion of the cab that's already done. Came out pretty sweet. ![]() |

Is that a Chevy or a GMC?
I saw leaf springs which I think are usually stock on GMC, an option on Chevys. Then I saw the gate said Chevy, but I thought I saw GMC on hub cap. So what do you have there? The interior looks excellent. Great job!

Hey... aren't you supposed to make the exterior look like glass??? You could get that new clear carpet for the floor. No, man. it really looks sweet.... look forward to the finish of your project. Good luck .... Trevor

I wish the OUTSIDE of my truck looked that good! BTW, I think you should keep the tape on the pedals and everything else for that monochromatic look.

Got it out into sunlight for a change...
![]() Had to pull it out of the body shop to start on another project that has a "due" date. Everything is in primer except for the pass. door & hood. So even though the truck is not there, the work on it will still continue. ![]() |

Re: It's Begun...
I always thought they should have painted the heat/air box in these at the factory. I certainly understand not painting it now since you go original, but imagine how it would look if that was done to begin with.
