Well after being on the road for only two weeks the truck is back in the shop/garage. The original plan was to redo the interior this winter however I got thinking that with the interior and glass removed this would be the best time to paint the truck, and if we were painting the truck now would be the best time to make the conversion to a short bed so we are diving in head first. Truck is getting a combo of spray in heat/noise reducer and hush mat, new carpet, door panels, all new rubber seals/gaskets, and glass for the interior. The exterior is getting new front fenders, short bed sides, bumpers, and paint. The body, interior from the glass up, and engine bay will be single stage satin black while the bumpers, grill, mirrors, door handles, and wheels will be gloss black for a little bit of accent.

This past weekend was getting the interior and glass gutted then some rust repair done. The roof header panel was worse than we thought so we put in a patch panel. While the old piece was out we took the time to clean up what we could and paint on some rust encapsulator and then used the Eastwood inside frame spray on stuff in the rest of the roof. The panel is not done yet but getting closer.
