Yes I will post some pictures for sure. I have not as of this morning received any pics from Anthony.

DWilbur · 07-26-2019, 01:15 PM

So no 2nd color this week. I did get my garage cleaned out last Friday. Also been thinking about seat & door panel material and color. I might go with Vinyl Doeskin or possibly Black.

Bummer on the paint!!! How are you doing your door panels? Covering the stock ones???

I have 2 sets of door panels to work with. I'm thinking about having them covered with vinyl so the modifications for the power window and door lock controls don't show but I have not thought much about it until I get my truck back.

I hear you but I have been thinking about the interior more and more!!! I don't plan to have a door lock button inside since I only have 2 doors, but I will have keyless entry with a key fob.
I believe you will need it with the crewy....unless you have long arms!!!hahaha

DWilbur · 07-30-2019, 05:16 PM

My power locks come with key fob witch will mak it easy to lock & unlock doors

DWilbur · 09-04-2019, 08:37 PM

After a month and half waiting for paint to be finished I finally got a hold of Anthony today and he said he is closing down his shop at the end of the year. so I asked him when is a good day to pick up my truck so I can have someone else complete the work and he asked me to give him until September 20 so I said okay. 2 and half week finished or not I will pick up my truck.

**Getter-Done** · 09-04-2019, 09:39 PM

I hope this situation turns out good for you.
This seems like a deal that could go Sour. IMHO.
Can you pick your truck up Now???
I would __ ___ __???

The last few time I leaned on him he got work done. Only 3 steps left to finish.

1- paint the 2nd color
2- pin stripe it
3- clear Coat
should take a good week of work.

**Getter-Done** · 09-04-2019, 10:16 PM

I hope this turns out to be a Good Story.
I like what you have done with this truck.

DWilbur · 09-20-2019, 07:34 PM

Well Just as I expected nothing happened with finishing the paint and today is the 20th. Wednesday Anthony said it would be in the spray booth by today. All I herd today is crickets.

DWilbur · 09-20-2019, 08:34 PM

Well I spoke to soon it did make it in the booth

**Getter-Done** · 09-21-2019, 08:05 AM

A step in the right direction.
Hope he can get it Painted for you.

DWilbur · 10-02-2019, 09:26 PM

Anthony said I can pick up my truck Next Friday paint will be done. Finger crossed at this point as I have not received any pictures sense last Friday.

DWilbur · 10-10-2019, 06:05 PM

With threat of power outages the last couple of days I decided to have Anthony hold off on completing the paint until PG&E stops the rolling black outs. so I won't be picking up my truck Friday.

**First c10** · 10-11-2019, 12:39 AM

Always something. Keep at it!

DWilbur · 10-17-2019, 06:06 PM
