Looks like you have a bit of cleaning to do

How are you holding you plywood bed in BTW? I can't tell from the picture whether you bolted that in or is it just riding on top of the bed supports?

Lookin' good tho'

[KroAutomotiveInc]

i got some self tappers that are about 2 1/2inchs long going into the bed supports

Yeah Duplicolor is what I bought at the local O'Reilly's as well. I went with Industrial Red and Gloss Black so I guess our engines will have a similiar theme. I sh*t canned the blue/grey idea and went with flashy (like you )I figure it's my truck why can't I just do what I want!

Of course, now it's gonna look like I copied you
