    Nice Jay, I was beginning to wonder if mine was going to be finished before yours
     
  2. Funny, I've thought the same thing. I have to find my own motivation. Dad will just have to ride with me, in my heart.
     
  3. Finishing up the loose ends on the fenders. They're ready for paint now

    That's the J.Fishbeck I know, not the one I seen a few post's back that settled for how the floor of the bed came out. Sorry for being hard on you Jay. Your friend John
     
  8. I'll save my pesetas, and buy a new one. I have way too much time in this beater. I'd rather build a hard tonneau cover, than put anymore time in that thing.

  10. A rubber bed mat would even be a quick fix. And yeah, Herb is on my iPod.
     
  11. The clouds parted for the briefest moment. 24hr window to get primer over the SEM adhesive promoter.
     
  12. Started raining a minute after I got the hood back inside

    As Justin Wilson said,"I sure am glad for you to see me."

    I've learned a lot from the two threads covering this build and I sure am glad to see it going again.
     
  14. It's finally raining here. I don't want to slow the momentum, but I should take the day off.

    I drew up some more ideas last night, for the front seat and door panel designs. Originally, I was thinking I'd use the lighter material over most of the seat. It looks better, the other way. Won't know until I'm actually doing it.

    Toying with the idea of spraying the truck with mother of pearl, too.

  16. Haa, good one!

    I'd like to think the hood will be ready for paint tomorrow

    Looks like you've really got the ball rollin again! Cant wait to see what you decide to do with the paint. I know you'll come up with something cool.
     
  26. I'm not going to put pearl over the whole thing. It would look good, but I don't think I should. Thanks Ken! Hit me up soon. Later bud
     
  27. It's not bad, for work truck white.
