Very impressed with your attention to detail and thoroughness. The neatness of your shop speaks to your attention to detail and meticulous work! Well done buddy...a pleasure to watch!!!
Looking great and thank you, I now know how to remove the cab off the old chassis and install on the new chassis. Working alone I was stumped on how to move the cab to the new chassis. Also clean and repaint the cab in the process.
You done this before....not to many people starting out know to edge a fender first before painting. And the way you pull off tape at a sharp angle comes from experience. Every video I watched shows you using what I call the "Old School" method and not takeing any short-cuts. It's nice to have a back up job....you could get a job in a body shop any day. You know your going to have to build some shelves for all the trophies your going to get.
Truck is looking great Man!! Its really fun watching other guys building their projects on here. Keep up the good work and keep checking mine out. wish I would have started videoing sooner, but youtube wasn't even around when I started working on mine! hehe Bruce
Really nice work! I just started on a 1955 3100 restoration an this has been a great motivator for me...thanks for posting these. Did you have to wet sand that paint at all or did it lay down that smooth to where you didn't need to wet sand?
@@Gibson63. how did you go about stripping the old paint? My project has the original paint and whoever sold the truck sprayed the whole thing with what looks like rattlecan paint or some sort of primer paint to try and seal it from rusting. I cant decide whether to have it blasted which is expensive or mechanically strip it with a stripper wheel for the surface rust portions and 80 - 180 grit with a DA sander. Thanks in advance.
citizzencain I had my truck media blasted then epoxy, so I can do all the body work from there it was a lot easier for me, I did disassemble the whole truck also
@@Gibson63. Thank you...that is the direction I'm leaning...I actually just found a place that'll do both for around 1500.00. Did you also have the frame blasted and did you use POR 15 on the frame?
George Steve Leyva Everything turned out great on the color match. I waited on the same temperature use the same air pressure and the same amount of basecoat and clearcoat , and this is a solid color so that helps on matching better
+Arturo Bolanos I unlatched and folded up the bottom section of my garage door with 5 box fans pulling the overspray out, and used my window with a filter to bring the air flow in, my garage is only 16x20, I did get overspray but this kept it down and out of the garage pretty quick

I'm extremely impressed with the quality of your paint work without a paint booth that cost more than my house. Amazing job!
I love how you take your time and not hurry on doing anything. All of your videos really impress me how generally cool and collected you are!
Steve Mills hey man thanks for watching need to get back on my brothers truck so I can get some more videos up been busy at work
All that hard work is really paying off now with all the sanding, filling, sanding and more sanding. Very, very, very nice.
Yes I found out it takes a lot of sanding to get one smooth
Man, that paint is gorgeous! Red and silver look great together. Truck's going to be a knockout! Thanks for the update.
Yeah I realy like the silver after I got it on there thanks for watching

Oh my goodness, what a beautiful finish, great colours together as well, great vid

Thank man this is my first paint job no doubt I've watch a few videos so that helps a lot
Very nice job
Looks dam good - I wish I was that far a long on my project.
Nothing but perfection for you
Great job... just one thing i noticed with the cab on the chasis,the pipes look a little close..
Looking forward to the next video..
I do have a 2' clearance between the cab and pipe should be ok I didn't notice it myself
man you got some good conditions in there.. very nice
Yes it's been good for painting but doing construction work outside will get to you

citizzencain Yes I had to wet sand in some places 1000 most of it 1500 to 3000 then compound

@@Gibson63. Did you mechanically strip the paint on this or did you have it media blasted. I cant decide which route to go with mine?

Did you have any issues with color match since it was painted at different times? Are all the panels the same tone/darkness?
George Steve Leyva Everything turned out great on the color match. I waited on the same temperature use the same air pressure and the same amount of basecoat and clearcoat , and this is a solid color so that helps on matching better
Far better than original
how are the panels attached to the wood. Or are they out sitting on there
The door is sitting on top of the 2x4 ledge the fender also has a 2x4 screwed to the saw horse that it's resting on
How were you able to not have overspray round your garage. Your garage is meticulous very clean can you share your secret
+Arturo Bolanos I unlatched and folded up the bottom section of my garage door with 5 box fans pulling the overspray out, and used my window with a filter to bring the air flow in, my garage is only 16x20, I did get overspray but this kept it down and out of the garage pretty quick
What setup are you using to remove the paint / fumes from your garage?
I'm pulling air through my window with a filter and 5 box fans at the bottom of the garage door with filters pulling it out
Same setup I use lol.
Hey what other short bed frame can i get to fit my 63 C10 I want a short bed
bling bling BLING Thats Shiny
All that prep is really paying off..beautiful
