The rest of the truck is still in paint prison. They have aligned panels and have the body prepped and in guide coat ready for final sanding. Then, the inside of the cab will get the BMW Gold and door jambs cut in. Hopefully, one day next week...?

We are not pressuring the shop at all right now because winter weather has arrived here in Southeast Tennessee. I go by the body shop about 3 times a week just to make sure there has been SOME progress. I took breakfast in for the whole shop last week, too. Just letting them know that we appreciate their work on the truck. Maybe that will help motivate them into doing an even better paint job.
