Its getting there
« on: January 25, 2009, 09:08:22 pm »
Well started on it last friday .Worked on it a few days out of the week. And all of to day. Coming out pretty good. Little bit more rust than i was hoping for. But o well. Have to weld in some more patch panels but that should be done this week.. Next I have to fig out what color to paint it. Thats the part I hate the most. I can never pick a color and stick with it. I'll  posting a poll soon lol.







later all jay

Do you have the original paint code for the two tone brown? It's usually located in the glove box. My truck is that same color and I want to paint it back original,but the previous owner removed the glove box,which means no paint code for me.

Well got all the other body work done. Minus the lower front fender patch ( they send me the left side) But when ahead and primmed it up. Looks pretty good.
Now for the really really hard part picking a color. this is the part I hate.
