finally got my color scheme figured out (minus the maroon kitchen table)

colors (768x1024).jpg

and painted the heater box factory Granite gray

far from perfect but, never thinking I'd be doing it myself, I'll settle for ok :)

fighting the weather now with the highs only in the upper 50's to low 60's in a non insulated shop...

Temps ranging from 50 - 60?  Here in Hill Country Texas our temps have been ranging from the occasional 50 (with lots of humidity) in the morning to high 80's - low 90's (much less humidity...usually...mostly...sort of) in the afternoon.  Since my family would not let me paint my truck (such little faith), can't wait to see how yours turns out.  The pieces look good.

Found a photo of us installing the cab.  BTW, if you install this way, warn everyone about the running board supports.  They have a tendency to bite your knees as you go past them :rolleyes:
