Cab in and out done. Radiator support turned out great. Inner fenders done. Doing the doors tonight. Will mount the support and inner fender this weekend. Putting a slider rear window in. Much more to come. Having fun.

The color is called Polo Green metallic. 97 Mitsu color. It changes colr kind of between blue and green depending on how the light hits it.
Added a couple more photos from the old album. Making progress. Lots more to follow.

Looks great.

How did you do your frame? Paint? POR15?

Did you sandblast the frame first?

Its actually a combination of paint and POR-15.
My freind from long ago painted the whole frame for me. Not sure what he used but it is tough as hell. 10 years later I find POR-15 and I touch up the places that I was careless on and put small chips in the paint. I POR'd it in those places and then rattle canned the POR with high gloss black. The truck is a California original so the frame was pretty clean to start with.
