Mod Update #1

Just got back into town but the truck is still out of commission. Less than ideal but at least we got some pictures!


Cat is all like.... Sup? Yeah.








So basically I wrapped up the plates with painters tape and then copied over my templates. Used a Dremel 100 (Single speed) to make all the cuts, used a hand file to try and get them straight as I could and then began sanding them. I made some mistakes and that's why I decided to sand down to the bare aluminum for those two panels, but I think for the other side panel and front bezel I won't be sanding to the bare aluminum. As for now my window and top panels are ready for some priming.


Not sure when I'll be priming and painting since I haven't secured a place to spray... I'm reluctant to paint on the ground... I'll think of something I suppose. Plenty of time.
