    Thanks man.nope not gonna be done for a while.in store is to fix the spots and fill seam on roof,fill stake holes,and a good buddy of mine "Moe" here on the HAMB is going to redo all the metal around the tail lights,since the lower halves are bondo'ed all to hell.I also bought some tail light chrome pieces at the Round Up swap meet that we'll be replacing the original tail lights with.I've decided against a dark color and I am leaning pretty far over into the shiny direction.

    I'm thinking a pearl white with real subtle scallops would look increadible on that truck!

    I so much understand what you might be feeling.
    Im doin the bodywork and prep for paint on my ride and its all but an easy job. The drive for this kinda stuff unless you like doin it is the vision of the final product, the better the prep, the better the result.
    Seems to me your prep job is pretty damn good!

    Don't go with a dark color, a light one will look better in my opinion.
