In the body shop

So my 73 C10 short bed is in the body shop for some body work and some new paint I had all the holes filled where the trim was I filled the stake holes and had them fill the seem line on the cab and I remove the cargo light as well. I should have her back in about 2 more weeks the color is a Dark Root Beer Brown here are some samples of his work he works out of his backyard and if you PM me I will tell you the price I paid for it he's Hear in California and his work is unbelievable.... oh and by the way the pics of the door are without cut and buff he still has to color sand it

Re: In the body shop

Both fenders are completed and now the tailgate here are some pics of tailgate in the shade and then with some light bouncing off it you can see that in the shade it's quite dark but when the Sun hits it you get that nice root beer Pearl effect

A deal like that would almost be worth shipping him a seat to get done.
