I've been pretty quiet lately because I have been flailing to get the lil red truck ready for paint.

I may have mentioned I am doing the cab/fenders/hood first, and will do the box later (both to spread the financial burden out a bit but also just due to the magnitude of work to get it ready).

Dropped the truck off this morning!

It's already been lowered once (when it was new) and I think I'm going to drop it another inch or so while the bed is off....

It looks pretty good; you can "see" some of my bodywork but it will be fine for a daily driver.

Now I've got to simulaneously get the interior put back together and get the box ready for paint!

Base/clear.

It was enamel originally, so I am glad for the "step up" in paint quality/durability/execution.
