Talking Fresh paint

I just had to share some pics of my truck...lol. I just painted it yesterday.
Wow, what a great feeling to finally get some color on it. There has been several times that I was sure this day would never come. I hit wall after wall with doubting my self and my ability but I did it!!! Thanks to every one on this great site, without everyones posts and help I would have never made it this far.
It makes me wonder how anyone could ever build a truck like this without the internet!!!....LOL. Now lets see if I can actually get a couple pics to post. I'll put some more pics on after I get the rest of the panels on.

Re: Fresh paint

I know this is an old thread, but I was looking for your build and this is the closest I could find. Do you have any update pics. You did a great job.
