OK so there was another weekend of pre-paint production. The doors, fenders, hood, and bed are ready for primer. The cab on the other-hand has become a problem, actually I'm the problem but it's the cab bringing out my OCD tendencies. Once the cab got to the point of being ready for primer I decided the shave the A/C and vent holes from the firewall. Well that certainly wasn't enough so we shaved all the weld divots on the inside of the door frame openings. Once that was done I just couldn't leave well enough alone are stated filling the cable tray. Needless to say, not an ounce of primer met metal. The cable tray fill found the limits of my talent boundaries. I'll finish it up maybe tomorrow but it'll take a fair amount of Bondo to offset my skill deficiencies.

First we finished up the cab corners:
