I agree with Bill. It sounds like your process is the exception. Most shops don't go to that length. In fact I don't know of one around me that does and if they did you might as well gold plate it if you know what I mean. Your site has some nice stuff on it. Great work. Different strokes............I guess.

Later,

Looks really good. So what is the final color going to be ?

bill amsley · #**137** 12-01-2009, 07:41 PM

the final color is going to be solid red,but for now the interor metal will be red & the out side will be semigloss black. i want to debug the truck w out having to worry about the paint plus i like the look of new e coated metal. my dad keeps saying just paint the damn thing and get it over with.

Bill, the body work is flawless. The lines on the cab are beautiful. I mean the frame around the window and the shaved drip rail lines are sick. I also like the indention in the roof panel.
