    I think Smokey looks fantastic Mike and for what little my opinion makes I think you have the perfect plan for the direction you're headed with this project. Looking forward to see the Interior put in. Thanks.

    Every time I see that side of the truck it reminds me of when you sprayed the spring on the little door where the dipstick is
    with WD-40, and it magically started springing open like it is supposed to.
    I've had moments like that before. It's funny how a little win like that can be such a big thing...

    Mike, if it was my truck, next job would be get it running and driving, next remove the cab completely and get the body giys at the workshop to paint it inside and outside, matt black inside then put the cab back on and then do the interior. Cannot see the point in doing the interior and then moving it plus with the remove you can get the frame rail painted too.
    Cheers Paul

  • @1911MikeinOregon
    @1911MikeinOregon 3 місяці тому +1

    I really like the visor. It's the perfect size in my opinion. I can't stand big drop visors. I think they look tacky,
    and they block a lot of your vision. The worst part is not being able to see the traffic lights, if you are stopped
    at an intersection. You have to bend over the steering wheel and look around the visor to see the lights...
    Now that you have the cab lights mounted, I think it looks better not having the cab lights on top of the sleeper.
    If we lived closer to each other, I would offer to do the paint work for you free of charge. Of course you would have
    to buy the paint. I've painted show cars and multi-million dollar motorhomes before. Painting the cabover would
    be easy.

    • @mikethetrucknut
      @mikethetrucknut  3 місяці тому

    Doing well there Mike , I think I would of finished sanding the roof cap then tried home spraying it , if it comes out nice then fit lights windows and it’s a job you don’t have to do twice but if it’s still a 10feet paint job it’s something that could be done at a later date of which you could decide then to do your self or pay to be painted
