I replaced my floor pans and, I'm ashamed to say, my fitment and welding left a little to be desired. I top coated it with Eastwood Gloss Chassis Black and all my little sins slapped me in the face. So I went back over it with Rustoleum Textured Bed Liner spray cans. Two good coats and I'm really happy with it. Hides a multitude of sins. Gloss black (Haven't repainted over my patches yet)...

ok.... sooo small baby steps as far as progress goes.I recently placed the cab back on the chassis and began sanding. I can only spend 1-2 hrs a day if that dedicated to the build.(2 yr old son) But Im loving every moment of it until something unforeseen happens. Then I get become unmotivated, and sit on it for a week while the research begins. A perfect example of this is the donor truck I just bought. I normally wouldn't have the time to look, but because of a small disaster welding a panel, I took a week off....and viola Fummins donor truck! Of course this is just a preliminary decision, as it goes this truck runs great, and I may end up just enjoying it. Decisions.. Decisions..
