Paint Update

I was actually able to shot some surfacing primer last night before I went to bed. This reveals all kinds of surprises! Oye! Ya gotta be careful letting your helpers use a DA, particularly on edges; there's going to be a lot of hand-sanding tonight!

I also detailed the areas around the cab top mounts, welded in all of the trim screw holes from the Targa trim, and fabbed the trim retaining strip for the top.

Tonight I'll block out the surfacing primer, fix the little "discoveries" from last night, and then shoot another coat of surfacer. Friday night I'll block that coat of primer...
