Guys,
I worked on the tub last weekend and I think it is ready for paint. As you see it here on the Jeff Helps inspired rotessorie, I am going to start painting in the near future I hope!

That tub looks mighty fine. And what a terrific rig to work on it! Nice job! _________________ Support our troops, past and present.

Very nice Ryan!
Nothing like laying down the top coat and seeing all that time of prep work was well spent!!

Man, that's a nice tub! Awesome feeling to see it with a coat of paint after all the work getting it to that point, isn't it?
I second the motion, we need to see shots of the inside of your shop & all the goodies you have! _________________ Galen

Thanks for the nice words guys!
I have replaced a lot of the sheet metal on the back half because the rear quarter panel corners were dented in badly and the rear floor was beat down.
I'll try to get some photos of the inside of the shop for you, but I have to clean it up a bit as it is a mess. This shop is a lot smaller down here in Texas than my dad's back home so I have to keep the equipment down to what I need for the part of the project I am working on.
I hope to start painting it in the next couple of weeks as time permits.
I want to get some measurements and some other photos for more articles while it is bare. _________________ Ryan Miller
