First of all,absolutely awesome lookin job..You guys have done well..As far as sanding goes,its not one of my favorite jobs either,BUT...never mind,,I just try to tune myself out a little when I do it..But,hey it is only a little body,,good thing its not a mid eighties Suburban,or a Ford e-van...

I hear you on the sanding, Don. Sometimes I have to force myself to do it. The truck looks awesome!

I have found the secret to body prep and painting. I do machining for my painter and he does painting for his machinest.

Thanks guys. That sounds like the way to do it, Bruce..........trade labor for labor.

When I worked at the body shop (I was office staff, not a tech) I would see our guys out there sanding away all day, prepping cars, and they did it day in, day out. I would just get up in the morning and shoot myself if I had to go to work and do that. I guess every job has people who like it though.

Nice part is, we are heading to the shop in a little while to do more sanding on his bed. Dan has actually done most of the work on the sanding so far though. I don't do it to what I know his standards are, and he is also doing things like rounding corners while he is prepping it. So, I either work on wiring my 27 or on building my minibike.
