Don't know him from any of the forums, but he sure did a nice job. I wish I could do body work (and had a place TO do it). I'm going to paint something before I die...lol.

It sure does look nice.    Major improvement, and well done.  But I wonder why he put the saddle blanket over the seat.  The way it hangs down detracts from the "crisp" look of the rest of the truck.

I saw that and thought the same thing. I have a saddle blanket cover on my seat, but it is a well done piece and correctly installed.

Interesting steering wheel.  

I wonder why they didn't get into the cab floor before painting the rest of the truck?

Those wheels really pop against the bedliner(?) rockers and arch lips.
At any rate it did turn out nice!
