That's what we used on my blazer and we really liked them (even the body man and professional painter were impressed with them for the price) We got them at Harbor freight on sale if I remember correctly. The round one was perfect for the upper body line...

well, I was actually checking and can't find them listed on the site. Might have got them from Northern tool or NAPA's paint shop now that I'm thinking about it (since I can't find them on HF's site... ;))

I just read through all 21 pages of this build. This truck looks amazing. I wish you luck in finishing it up, no more lightning strikes, illnesses, bad castings and the like.

You do very high quality, conscientious work. I hope my Bucket can turn out half as nice!
Keep it up!

Tailgate is amazing!

Thanks guys I appreciate it! I'm going to cut my side vents soon. I used some spare a/c vents and cut some of the inner part out so it rests against the dash like its supposed to. I'll mark and cut it. I'll post pics.

Thanks a lot! I'm trying to do my best. I see you have a little rust in your hood.(avatar) If your working on it make a build thread so we can see.
