Re: Lurker OrrieG Progress Pics

While I have not been posting I have been working on the truck, mostly blocking and fixing minor flaws I keep finding. Also working on other loose ends, bracket to vintage back up and fog lights, license plate, etc. I have shot the last primer on the bed parts and hood after 320 grit blocking. Will do the cab and front clip when it cools down. To do the bed I had to get up at 6am so I could paint when the temp were in low 70s.

I did buy the wood for the bed (ash) and am going to mill it over the next few weeks, then trial fit to drill the holes before finishing. Goal is to have it painted and driving late summer fall.
