Looks good Matt. From the looks of it, it was a good call to go to the lengths you are going to. There was plenty of cancer there. Hopefully your patient will be cancer free very shortly.

Few more update. I plan on using this truck for camping, hunting, and fishing, so decided to not fix the fenders( still kind of regretting it). We used an epoxy primer and enamel equipment paint and sealed it. Turned out good for using a 20 dollar spray guy.

Thanks for sharing this album. It's great to see all the chronological progress of your restoration (a must see by the way). I'm out of words to compliment your work and abilities.
