Well here's the latest with plenty of touch up to do, don't think I'll do the flocking again (at least in a truck sleeper) unless I cut the doors open. But you gotta try it to know.

Well this is it for me so far this month, got plenty of touch up to do where the paint bled through. I wanted to do quite a bit yesterday but remembered in time it was my wife and mines anniversary to not get in trouble lol!! So instead spent the day by the Arkansas river, her drowning worms and me having some Colorado kook-aid. Great day

     Richard,

                 That is one very sharp looking interior ! You did a fine job on that. Now the fun part. The cab assembly . Good luck on that.

That is the one thing about the multi part cabs I dread.

Rich, the interior detailing looks great!

The seats are not smooth plastic but have a real and live structure, something that you can touch and see.  When sunlight hits it looks different than just styrene, compliments..

The dash is stunning, my opinion.  Looks like a real metal surface with real gauges built in.  I like it, great work bud.

Looking forward to more on this project.

Richard this looks very good.  The paint job is a hit, I have lots of respect for a clean paint job, and tri-color would be for me a nightmare.  Very clean lines between the colors, you did good.

Well getting a little more done little bits at a time. Back on day shift for a while now and that will help, still shooting for the original date even though it doesn't matter anymore. What a shame so many great builds happening and all the sudden somebody let the water out of the pool! Oh well

 

The bang board isn't going on here I don't care for it for this truck I was just seeing what it would look like.

     Richard,

              That is looking pretty dang good  about now ! I like the color combo . And I would use the bang board . 

But then it also depends a lot on what trailer you are pulling .
