Medicman: LOL! It's gonna be black Medic. Thanks for lookin' in potna.

Paul: Thanks for the encouraging comments. :grin:

I painted almost all of the remaining body parts yesterday. Still gotta paint the topside of the hood and the tail gate but I had to do a lot of clean up on both parts.

Got the gloss coat on. Here in the photos this is about 6 hours after application so this is already nice n' dry to touch. It'll be another 3-4 days till I bring all of this out of the drying booth. I'm really stoked about how this finish is going to look on the completed build.

The letters in the middle of the light reflection on the body is the script on the bulb:

Thanks Carlos and Bruce.

I do love black paint jobs. Can't seem to get away from 'em.

Your work is phenomenal, Joe. Sincerely. That is truly a beautiful job of work with a very revealing and unforgiving finish. You added real depth!

That is some smooth, shiny and pretty slick-lookin' paint work. Nice.
