With warmer weather and a booth full of pieces hanging from hooks and setting on anything I could find that would allow me to get primer on them, it was time to start painting again.

First, I had to sort out what order I wanted to paint in. I decided to sort by color and where they went. The logical way was to start from the bottom and work my way up just like in the order I was painting the rest of the truck, and they will go on.

I also had to finish painting the cab inside and out that I paused on last fall when it got too cold.

The vast majority of pieces were along the bottom, and they all get painted black. I started with the fenders because they go on first and then build out from there. Next was the steps and that pretty well limited what I could spray this first go around.

I will let these cure out for a week and install them next weekend and if I have time paint the next batch.

I had time left that weekend so I also got the first color on the cab so I wouldn't have to paint next to the finished pieces.
