Last bit of progress, we got the hinges painted so hopefully we can get the tailgate installed this weekend...

installing more shiny stuff....

We had not pre-drill the holes for the partial spear on the doors when we installed new door skins, so here we mask off the bottom of the door and drill SLOWLY to prevent heat buildup.

Then the fresh holes are touched up with two coats of epoxy primer. Once dry the spears are added..

And our dash clock showed up so we can get that hole filled as well
