no news from my painter as to when he wants my truck.i was puttering around today,taking pictures of the power steering mounts,lines and so on,to help another fella out with his project and while taking pictures for him,got a picture of just how much of a mess i have to deal with AFTER this thing is painted again.it's all going to have to come apart,the motor is coming back out cause all my work is ruined,everything i rebuilt,repainted and repaired,is all white with overspray?what a king sized waste of time and money?i was hoping to pull everything off the motor and repaint it right in the truck but the frame is white,it's everywhere.it'll be easier to pull it back out than try to work around it.it doesn't look anything now,like it looked before it went to this poor excuse for a body shop?
