Wow, the progress you are making is indeed amazing. Good job!! The white will look sharp for sure. I guess you're not worried about the overspray, since you go back over those areas with the black?

yea I knew I was going to do them black so I wasn't worried about over spray, however underhood was covered up because I sanded the inner fenders before paint.

New pics...





I got the door panels ready to go, customized also, left them off to tint the windows. Those are done in 5 percent black tint, and had to repaint the back of the cab and hood. I got some dirt and water spots in the hood and went back to blue to get rid of them. Paint was too thin on some edges on back of the cab, now they are all finished up. I also wet sanded the fenders, going to buff them, then the doors, clean paint the frame, and replace the spring hanger. Keep looking back for more pics.

What color of white is that?  It looks like it dang near glows in the dark. ;D  My old 77 was painted Ford ultra white, because it was the brightest white the paint guy could come up with.  On a cloudy day it almost seemed the truck glowed.

So how's it coming along?
I really appreciated you posting this project. I'm looking at doing something similar on an '85 so it was awesome to see your pics and progress.
