Yes it is... and we are applying twice the amount of paint that the factory applied !!!!! They never even finished the inside roof of the cab.....

I'm sure that doesn't surprise you especially with working this newer paint jobs on new vehicles? I remember all the problems we saw in the 90's and it was crazy how little paint actually was sprayed on. Especially dodges.

CUSHE63 · 07-28-2010, 07:03 PM

We got the tops of the doors painted tonight...

VA72C10 · 07-28-2010, 07:31 PM

Looking great!

CUSHE63 · 07-28-2010, 11:12 PM

The roof gets painted tomorrow !!!!!

CUSHE63 · 07-29-2010, 10:30 PM

Totally agree with this statement! That paint looks awesome! I would love to have access to your booth

67chevy1series · 08-03-2010, 05:02 PM

wow that top looks killer

CUSHE63 · 08-03-2010, 08:20 PM

Thanks everyone for the comments. We have come a long way since October of last year, that's for sure. We are hoping to have it on the road in the coming weeks. Believe it or not, that is the plan. I sanded the outside of the driver's door today and all we have left is the cab and bed... We haven't gotten the hood or tailgate done yet, but that is not a problem.

VA72C10 · 07-29-2010, 11:36 PM

CUSHE63 · 08-03-2010, 12:09 PM

CUSHE63 · 08-05-2010, 08:13 PM
