Really don’t want to go the route this time. I was thinking about doing this one, cab off frame, doors on. While its in primer, my thinking would be easier to get doors aligned and not scratched up. Does this sound feasible? What kind of issues will arise doing it this way, like getting cab back on frame, how long I have to wait after paint to use hoist to get cab back on? Paint bed on or off frame. I know to do fenders separate. Any other advice is much appreciated, thanks, Kel

By the way, love that red!!!
