Finally got her loaded and to the body shop so we can use a booth. Hope to get primer sprayed sometime in the next week depending on their schedule and when I can jump in.

Started the preliminary body work on the bed. It is mostly new, so not a whole lot to do. I cut the side marker out of the passenger fender because at one point I was going to remove them all. I have now decided to keep them, so I have to weld it back in. One step forward...two steps back.
