Looks great, but why'd you paint your cargo door latches? Wink

Went to the garage to get the tape off and take some pics. Looks awesome with the freshly painted scab.

So did you paint that where it sits, and just cover the stuff in the shop? I'm also curious about painting with doors on vs doors off. How does that work? Thinking ahead to when I tackle that part of my project.

Beautiful work! I especially love the shot of it in primer, so smooth.

Can't wait to see the conclusion.
