So my buddy is letting me use his garage to paint my truck this winter, I am very grateful for that. He bought the house in April, the detached garage has a seperate bay that was all drywalled and insulated, and had airlines run through the wall, and also has a toilet, lol. Its a nice setup and was made for painting. Its working nice no far.

Catch was I had to help him put a ladder bar setup on his '78 F-100 that me and him built 4 years ago, this ought to take care of his horrific wheel hop issue!

I'm glad you chose the black on top. I like it better and that's what your inclination was first.

Nice work.

Thanks! It turns out its more of a dark charcoal or graphite, not quite as black as the color chip I picked it from, oh well, it still looks good.

Heres a finished picture of the ladder bars on my buddies '78

Thanks guys!

I plan to make door panels for it, and I'm using the seats that were in it before..

As for the rest of the interior, I'm not sure yet. It is getting a center console that'll house a 10" sub, and I have kick panels that'll house a component speaker system. I'd like to use a yuengling tap handle for a shifter also.

hard telling really! I still have to paint the door handles, mirrors, taillights, and front bumper (have to do all the bodywork to that too). The grille and headlights i can throw in. I have to make a center console still, which will house my 10" sub. Wire up the power windows, new carpet, make door panels, cover or paint the new kick panels that will hold component speakers. Have to repair and paint the frame for the superdome. Such a long list, theres way more than that to do! I'll be driving it this summer though don't you worry.
