I think it looks like a shiny new alternator. ;)

Yeah, I even tried a "plumbers friend" suction cup...it would move the metal but not enough to get it to "pop" back out. I still had to use a fair amount of filler in that area after massaging it back into place.

The biggest part of the "forklift dent" will push back out. Just take your door panel off, reach in and start pushing.

poncho457...Welcome to the board. The new tires looke awesome. Can you tell us specifically what the rims are? Model, price, where you got them if you would? Thanks.

donalloy1, it looks good, nice job...but...you forgot to paint the dogs to match while you were at it. ;)

Hey, that's a nice looking top now that it's all painted up...nice work!

Well, it felt like Spring here today with temps above 70. Tomorrow is supposed to be 80 and if the wind will stay down, I'm going to paint the '09 tomorrow afternoon. It's been ready and waiting all winter long and I resisted temptation a couple of times when it was 50, so now I'm sitting here...

I have no idea what went/goes there. Maybe somebody that knows will chime in and inform the rest of us.

wheelspinner...ouch!!! That really does suck!!!

Painted the underside of the hood and a first coat of paint on the interior. A little at a time but we are getting there.

Got the bedliner in the back today...first coat anyway. I'm not a big fan of black so I'll be painting the floor when I the rest of the interior. I toyed with the idea of using a commercial rubber roof coating but ended up using the Rustoleum I already had. Also picked up a pair of side steps...

I'll try to get down to the shop tomorrow and take some pics.

Rustoleum bed liner on the cab floor this morning...will do the bed this week sometime. Not sure whether to leave it black or paint it but time will tell on that.

Lookin good...well, you know what I mean...lol. Also looks like you've got your best helper there too...that's cool.
