".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......"
Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years.
Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started the whole sand and re-shoot thing.
I remember one that orange-peeled badly enough it needed re-shot. Just so happened a friend stopped by shortly after I got done with the first paint and was cleaning up the spray guns and putting stuff away.
I still remember his comment. “ Mike, maybe you should have used a new paint roller.”
It was actually what I really needed to hear, after I got done laughing the rest of the day went fairly well.
That comment was still remembered whenever I did a paint job after that and even now I still grin about it.
Keep smiling, it beats the alternative. :D

Been getting the truck back together. Painted the wheels and got the tires mounted. Went with 235 55 17 all around. Too cheap.to chrome so I painted the bumper and hood emblem with some silver I had left from painting my Miata.
Spent about a month getting a power window kit to fit (made for this truck supposedly LOL)

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before upholstery. Thinking about how I want to do the door panels too, would like a little detail on them. Any recommendations on where to get upholstery materials?
