Looking good. I like how you did the doors since they are not drilled for the Custom Cab inserts

Actually no, the bed is getting a single stage urethane,the rest of the truck was sprayed with water based color and then clear coated the cab floor,steps and inner roof was first sprayed with por 15.
This will be my daily driver when its done and save me about 1/2, to 2/3rds the price of a new truck, considering what new full size trucks are going for, (not counting my time in those figures)

Looks great. Some Frog tape might be a big help protecting your paint when you start putting parts back on.

Nic, the paint choices were left to the body shop. My guess would be its ability to take more abuse since this will be my daily driver. Although the wheel wells have had some work and an effort was made to get rid of the loading swail just inside the tailgate the rest of the bed has just been blasted primed and painted.
I was able to get it home yesterday in an effort to get it wired and running, then its back to the shop for sheet metal and glass.
Thanks for the interest
John
