[Dan in Pasadena]

Back to the truck, I picked up a bunch of my parts from the painter this afternoon:

Bed front panel
Side steps
Cowl vent panel (I’ll use the non-vented panel instead)
Door panels - Man, they look great!
Some small miscellaneous parts like ash tray, glove box hinge, etc.

I bubble wrapped it all so there could be no damage and put it safely in my garage for assembly later.

I REALLY need to get going on finishing the bed wood because it’s a time eater. I also need to drive the truck to a local place for glass installation. But to do that safely I need a seat installed. Those broken gas tank strap bolts^^^, keep me from putting in the seat, can’t put the seat in without putting in the seat belts first. And on and on. “Everything is waiting on everything else.” But I will have lots for time after 12/29 so it’ll get done.
