Usabodyguard's Project - Blwnlsx
I havent posted much progress lately, but I am in the middle of a pretty extensive build with SEMA 09 in my sights...
I have a bunch of sponsors on board, a big thanks to them (more on them later), but I am having the truck completely repainted... all of the windows, mirrors, trim, etc all pulled... doing a complete oem ss front end conversion, new grills, lights, etc, etc.... anyways, not to get long winded, i thought I would post a few on the paint pics from today... truck has been in the paint shop going on 4 weeks and should be there for another 2-3 weeks... paint/body/parts... 12k+.... 4 coats of paint, 6 coats of clear!
i didnt take pics of the shaved tailgate, gas cap, front end, grill assembly, roll pan, tonneau cover, etc...
more to come!
(next - complete engine build... top secret for now
)

BTW - the reason the top and back of the cab are taped off, is because my painter is 5'7" (on a good day) and he already painted that part(s) a couple days ago and had to lean against the sides and stand in the bed... but they are painted just like what you see.

He mixed up 1.5 gal of paint and his own formula - one off color.
