Almost Done!!!!

Drove my truck around the block today for the first time since I started the frame off rebuild. It has taken me 10 1/2 months to get it to the point it is in now. I need just finish some of the front and rear trim, get the windshield installed, bolt the bed down, put the bumpers on, get the bed coated, and then do a major detail job on it.... Should be completely done on xmas day....
Just wanted to share my excitement!
Just a quick pic I took today with the bags aired out-

Re: Almost Done!!!!

Thanks for the comments! Hopefully in the near future I will get some better pics that really show the paint. The paint came out better than I thought it was going to. Its got a very small amount silver flake in the black, you really cant see it unless you really look up close. I have a few spots that Im going to have to touch up on the metallic silver. I painted everything seperate then assembled the truck so it got some scrapes and scratches in it.
