I did get a few parts in primer. Spent days removing old paint and under-coating.
Was surprised how much work I still have to do to get them ready for paint.
At least I don't have to worry about the rusting.
I've been spending days stripping the cab and welding the seems inside of it. Hope to get it in primer soon.

Stepside Jim · 11-19-2013, 09:30 PM

Kim, I remember you were looking for a replacement rear fender. How did that come out, did you get a new aftermarket one?

**oldman3** · 11-20-2013, 12:14 AM

Kim, thanks for the pics, glad to see you making headway....Jim

fabguy · 11-20-2013, 07:31 AM

Your truck is looking GREAT Kim.

I bit the bullet and bought a new one.
It seems to be a real nice piece even though it is a tad thinner than the original.
