Re: My first C10 build, can't wait.

- Painted the motor this past weekend. Not really happy with the color. It was universal red high temp spray paint. The red color is too orangey.
- Got some goodies from Eastwood this week. Epoxy primer and some "pinup red" I will be repainting the engine parts with this color, more along the lines of the red I want.
- I went and picked up some long box bed sides to cut down. Got them for $200. They are pretty solid with the exception around the wheel wells. I have looked at plenty of the shortening threads on here, it doesn't seem too hard.
A little work but $200 is better than $1000 for some new bedsides.

Gonna paint some parts this weekend hopefully. Hope to get my frame back next week also.
