Update on this truck,
I have been working on it here and there for over a year now.
I'm no mechanic , and it's the first time I've painted using a compressor, or done welding so I know it's not perfect, but it keeps me busy and it's coming on.
Some pics.

Thanks mate, yes, if I had to pay someone else to do the welding, or any of it to be honest, it would have been completely uneconomical.

Looking good, the key to good spray painting is the prep work and taking your time. N
