After about 8 hours of masking and re-masking and making templates/remaking templates for the nose, the rally stripes are finished on the cab! I am really happy with the way this thing is turning out!! Since it has gotten a lil cool here we are gonna let the paint cure for a couple of weeks and then start assembly.

Nice! Can't wait to get to the point of painting my 74. The cowl panel looks like it came out good -smoothed.
