Got the cab painted

Post by powerwagontim »

Got the cab all painted last weekend, then misplaced my camera for most of the week.
The pictures show the cab during and right after the painting, so the gloss is deceiving. She dulled down to a nice even semi gloss.
Now to get the frame ready!
Here is a link to some new pictures.
