I've been so busy running my shop had a ton of big jobs coming thru and doing an LS swap for the guy thats doing my bodywork (Beggars cant be choosers when it comes to paying - ill have a small build thread going soon) Got a ton of pics from the body shop

Painted the whole underneath the bed Trim Black



Gate all shaved epoxied and in high build







Bed Iced end to end, shaved roll pan and pocket holes- you wouldn't believe what factory defects icing finds
all in epoxy primer now - almost ready to high build












Movin to the cab soon been too busy for any mechanical updates
