What was the cost for painting it if you dont mind me asking? Here in Michigan a body shop wanted 2000 dollars to fill in the holes where the trim went..and to paint the outside and the cab.

Thanks Truck69.

Just Wondering

Your truck looks great and will look super when you get it back together. I have to ask why you left the bowtie and 10 on the fenders and didnt remove for painting. I'm sure you masked them but removing them would have ben much better.

Definitely a nice looking truck. Now you have to post a completed pic with everything back on and unmasked.

Did you shoot that yourself? It looks great...what paint did you use? I hate driving with the masking on the windows...scares the heck out of my passengers and others on the road but it certainly keeps them clear of me!
