I'm making baby steps daily getting it back together.

I'm glad he's doing good. The truck is looking great.

I just stumbled on your build. Excellent truck and build. Of course I'm prejudice, but your truck color is beautiful. You met my truck and I at SETN last July. I am looking forward to watching the rest of your build.

52napco · 04-28-2022, 04:44 PM

Your truck is beautiful also

**Getter-Done** · 04-28-2022, 10:54 PM

Good to hear.

I hope too see you there

Bedsides are ready for final prime then everything
Off to the paint booth..new floor, ds bedside and front
Panel..ps was nice except for welding up travel tank hole..
Hopefully will see paint next week.

**Louisvillekytruck** · 05-05-2022, 06:41 PM

Great looking work

**68bowtie** · 05-07-2022, 08:50 PM

Impressive progress for just a couple quick years! Looking great.

How was it welding the PS tank hole? How slow do you have to go to keep everything straight?

52napco · 05-08-2022, 07:37 AM

My son Tig welder it in...he would do about a quarter inch and cool it off with blower nozzle.
Then go to the other side ad repeat. Slow process but on a flat area it's easy to warp the panel.

52napco · 05-13-2022, 06:45 AM

Slow and steady wins the race..😁😁 beds parts in final primer
Next week wet sand and paint.

**IronCanine** · 05-13-2022, 07:31 AM

Exciting! Looking good.

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-13-2022, 09:39 AM

Nice!

**Getter-Done** · 05-13-2022, 09:30 PM

Great news

**davischevy** · 05-13-2022, 09:40 PM

Looks great. Paint is the hard part.

72 tigger · 05-13-2022, 10:46 PM

Going to be beautiful when done

**GSFMECH** · 05-14-2022, 06:22 AM

Nice Progress!!

52napco · 05-29-2022, 07:18 PM

Parchment door panels all cleaned up and ready.
Wanted to buy new but no viable options that were
available..mine are good except for 1 extra screw
hole some dumbass added..most will
never notice but for now they'll work fine until
I find a nice pair.

**kev2809** · 05-29-2022, 07:24 PM

man who does that??

truck is coming along nice though

**davischevy** · 05-29-2022, 07:26 PM

They look great. At least the extra hole is on the passenger side. Nice door panels are getting hard to find in any color.

Not, sure if it was a dumbass or not I have seen quite a few with a screw in the same location. I wouldn’t sweat it.

**IronCanine** · 05-29-2022, 08:21 PM

All looking great...including the door panels!

**Orange71shorty** · 05-30-2022, 12:46 PM
