Project progress update!

Frame is painted!! Just wanting to share in the progress of my truck, which is quickly becoming an obsession I'm thinking a second coat of paint, at least on the outside, but that'll be later in the week, once the rain passes. How's yall's stuff comin' along?

Before. . .


After. . .

Steve,

The frame looks really good. What type of paint did you use?

Thanks guys I will try and post the biggest updates, as they happen. . .which since school starts in about 6 weeks, might be too many The paint is Sherwin Williams Industrial Enamel. Nice and thick, flows out very well. Takes forever to fully harden though. . .

You might be surprised at how much can be done paint wise while your body is still on Just another quicky update. Got my "cust-o-mized" spring packs done, and slung. Some other parts painted and bolted on. Almost ready to sling my front axle under there hehe, and then I can roll it into the back yard so it can sit while I catch up on everything I have neglected to this point
