Looks really great Mark. Tell me about the filter box thing you made, is it pulling dust free air into the shelter?

Yes it pulls air into the spray booth causing a positive pressure in the booth this way any gaps the air would push out instead of sucking air into the booth . Didn’t want the air pulled out of the booth with a box fan , I do have an explosion proof fan but it would suck the walls in way to much and it would pull air in any gap . I used the upper range filters not the best so I didn’t choke the fan . One of the reasons I made them into a box configuration more air flow .

Passenger door & fender , hood and grille . Might not get done this year unless I get access to a paint booth or just a shop area .

Few updates
I like the painted bumpers, so happens my truck has them too. I need to straighten them out and do the obligatory body work as well.
