Re: '59 4x4 Build

More body and paint pics. I'm doing a carport paint job because that's the space I have where I can paint. Started with epoxy primer on the hood and rear fenders and steps. I hung plastic sheeting around the area the keep the wind and debris out, but found it was a real pain because it was blowing like a sail and made it really difficult to move around. So when I got to the bed side panels and tailgate the next day I just got started a little earlier and painted before the wind was too strong. Overall, they came out pretty good. I still have to sand the doors and cab (inside and out). I'm buying new front fenders, so they will be easier. I am SOOOO looking forward to when all the paint is done and I can start assembling.
