"Some" progress. Decided to take some pics while I was over at the painters sanding the door jams, and taking off misc crap. Keep forgetting my damn camera, so these are still with the cell phone.

Hood after I sanded it to metal...


Some body filler....



Primed...all smooth now!!



Tried to show fish eyes in the paint from previous work done before I owned the truck, but you can't really see it....


Where they blended and left the decals on...


Took the wheel wells out, and unbolted the bed.


Random pics...




Took another pic of the color the truck will be when FINALLY done...


Still have alot of work ahead, have to take off the bed, and Butch still has about a full day's worth of sanding. BUT should be white by the end of this week.

Is that red "NitroStan" that your painter is using over his bodywork? I would be careful if that is what is due to the massive amount of shrinking of that product. It is known for that.

Looking good.
