Very nice! I like your door holder stand for painting!

Did you paint the inside and outsides of door at the same time or did you have to flip the doors around for spraying the insides??

I'm gonna steal or borrow that idea for painting mine if I ever get that far along!

We had enough room to paint both sides without turning the doors around. I made the hood stand and the hood is mounted so you can raise it to paint the edges underside without it falling off. It is bolted to the frame through the same holes that the hood bolts to the truck. We have used these roll around frames and that dolly for a lot of painting.
