Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 2,168 | After months and months of hammering, dollying, cutting, welding, grinding, sanding, scraping, fixing, prepping and cleaning I shot my first coat of epoxy primer with my new hvlp gun in my homemade spray booth! I'm happy to report that I should only need minimal filler and I hope to get this 3 window cab all finished and mounted with my custom dually box on the 1 ton chassis before July! It's amazing what a spirit booster a little paint is. I feel like this is the biggest accomplishment I've made ever doing an old truck like this! http://s1372.photobucket.com/user/foxj12/library/Mobile%20Uploads?sort=3&page=1 | | | | | Joined: Feb 2013 Posts: 111 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2013 Posts: 111 | Just a little excited there !

Looks real nice. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 3,399 Gas Pumper | | Gas Pumper Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 3,399 | Very nice! Glad for you. This is something I want to do on ton and a half trucks. Lower and use an extended box with wider fenders. I have a dump bed that is a short wheelbase 4400 that I want to make more garageable (keeping the dump and PTO).

Been following your build and it been impressive. Nice work. Can't wait to see your finished project.

I reached your current stage of the project 2 months ago. At that time I was as equally exited as you, but was way too optimistic about the time it takes to do all of the work to get it ready for final paint. Oh well, it will all get done eventually. Thanks for the post. It helps to remain positive.

Keep chipping away them, we'll get them done. I jut want to have the dually primered and assembled. I'm scared of the days ahead involving days of block sanding...Yeesh. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2015 Posts: 6 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Feb 2015 Posts: 6 | That looks great!
