Well i'll be heading down to my truck this weekend to do a bunch of work.
I'm hoping to get the front fenders trimmed and sprayed black, and get the doors, hood and headache rack sprayed black as well.
Also, I will be experimenting with de-chroming the plastic grill and mirrors.

If nothing else everything mentioned will be prepped and ready for paint next weekend. My body man has a camera too, so he'll be sending me progress pictures as he goes.

I'll post up the progress next week

Cheers

Been a busy couple weeks, worked weekdays 5 hours away from my truck, and worked weekends on my truck, so needless to say havn't had much time to upload any pictures yet. I promise they will be coming.
So far, Interior has been sprayed with bedliner on the floor, and all the inners of the body parts have been sprayed in a dull hotrod black.
I'm going down again this weekend to start prep on the outer body, all the dents have been filled and the body is looking smooth, the passenger fender is being lame because of 4wheeling ditch incident a while back... so he is gonna have to bust out the porta power hydrolic to adjust the rad support, back to where it should be.
I'm hoping to have pictures up by the end of this weekend

...I will be jacking up the frame and checking out clearance on 38 inch tires, see how much lift i'll need. I'm hoping with the fender trimming they will fit nicely into the fenders, without going too much higher with suspension. I will definitely be getting pictures of them mounted on the truck

..if I run these Michelin X Military tires or not is another question, worst case scenario I have an awesome set of offroading tires!
