No comes the worry of not scratching that paint with the rest of assembly. Looking good so far.

Re: Got my 72 all painted

Going to be a beautiful truck! Take your time and you won't scratch it up.
I'm using a lot of bed sheets and blankets on mine. And watch your BELT BUCKLE!

x2 and if the cowl needs to come off for the antenna, etc. make sure you use two people to remove/install and protect the tops of the fenders with tape/etc. Nice Work!!

Blue painter's tape is a godsend for this type of action, won't hurt the paint.
