You guys are probably right. I should do it all while there is easy access.

I bought a paint gun a while back, but I have never used one.
I'm worried that it is too cold ( 50 in the shop ) to paint and will be for a couple more months.

I do need to fix the rust spot!

I really can't decide about the wireing harness or tilt swap.
Since you have a spray gun use it. Get some cheap plastic tarps, cover the rest of the truck. Make a tent out of a plastic tarp for the front end, heat it with an oil filled radiator or 2 (No Flame or Element.) clean fire wall, repair rust, prime, go easy with the paint, 2-3 lite coats of primer. even if its only 60 degree's the paint should be fine. buff with scotch brite. Top coat same way. Don' forget the repirator. Nice Truck!
