SquareD Part 3: Body work, paint, roof rack, and farther off course ...

In this section we get into the body work, painting, a roof rack and a host of changes that cause this truck to depart the restoration/mod course it was on and onto a whole new project much more advanced in nature and purpose than what you have a feel for so far.

Seat belts on...Lets go!

Flyin6:
The bed of my truck...That nasty, faded looking piece of crap had a brand new bed hiding underneath all that faded paint!

Look what they found:

Flyin6:
So we loaded it up, strapped it down, drove it home, and unloaded it

Flyin6:
I still can't believe just how well it turned out!

Flyin6:
the spots on it were from either me walking on it, or moisture drops from the trip, or touching it. It was as perfect as a metal part could possibly be.

No question, most of the rest of the parts are going up there next week.

I plan to lay some self etching primer down on it today after I wash it. It needs to be washed to remove the protective rust inhibitor that was sprayed on it before it left the shop.

So that's the plan for today, get some paint on it.

In fact, If all goes well, I will actually get some real paint on the underside, since that area is essentially, done.

SO here was the DGS (Don's Garage Situation) last night before I had to go out and be sociable:
