Re: Project. Long Overdue
Thanks Newtz. Here are a few pics, she's all blocked and ready for the next coat of primer. Hopefully I will get that done in the next few days. It's one step closer to color.

Re: Project. Long Overdue
Here's a few updates. I have not made the progress I had hoped because I have been really busy at work. New rockers are in, spent saturday mocking up the fenders and doors to get all the gaps just right. I ended up getting some nice rust free front fenders to use. The old ones needed alot of work,(Previous painter covered alot of stuff). I also need a nice GMC step tailgate if anyone knows of one. My painter planned on shooting color inside the cab and firewall today. Here's a few pics.

Re: Project. Long Overdue
Thanks guys. I hope my truck turns out as nice as your trucks. I will start color sanding this week and get some more pics of it outside. I am really happy with the color.

Re: Project. Long Overdue
Here's a few shots of the color outside. Pulled the front fenders off so I can color sand/buff the fire wall. Still have to get a few peices painted, but I am stoked with the color.
