Thanks for the kind words everyone. It is definately not on the same level as most of the builds on this forum. I read through a few of these builds and my mind is literally blown.
Been stumbling along the last several weeks with some less than exciting work but its all gotta get done to go together.
Driver side fender was trashed on the truck when I got it along with the core support and a few other bits. So I picked up a parts truck for a few bits and pieces. The fender had trim on it and a couple pretty good dents so it needed a bit of work.
Did a little bit of body work on the fender and welded up all the holes on it, no filler. Primered with the same factory stuff, grey and then red oxide, then the pebble beige on the truck from the factory.
Then some rattle can in a little more yellow to match the rest of the truck.
Keep in mind, trying to match the rest of the truck. This is the red stripe going on.
Now with the brown.
Here is what a nice and pretty fender with lots of paint would look like =)
Hit it with some paper and started to get it to match the rest of the truck.
I have not done any color sanding on the door yet but its damn close and will fit in just fine on this turd.
So on with some other stuff. I needed a little more clearance for the upper link in the bed floor and I dont have an english wheel or other fancy tools so I got to work with some plate and u bends.
Giant hole cut in the bed floor and some welding later it was all good.
