    started on the rest of the truck today, made alot of progress. got the truck all sanded down, the bed is straight as ever, and all primed. the cab has a little more bodywork, but the bed is getting color tomorrow, and not lime green!!!! we also finished off the inside sheetmetal bed. for those of you who saw them all cut up, take a look. i'll have more pics up tomorrow of the bed, but here's what i got. let me know what you think

    So you just sand the paint down till it's a dull color, then you can spray over that?
