Took some pictures along the way and this is what I have gotten done so far.
As it was when I picked it up from the bodyshop who's owners retired.

Located the body shims the shop forgot to put back in inside the truck, here they are after some cleaning up and a little paint.

Cleaned up the hinges and hit them with some primer

Both fenders on and the hinges loosely in place

Hood loosely in place. Helps having long arms....lets you do somethings alone that sometimes take a couple people. When it is painted I will definitely ask for a hand.

Thanks what I have so far. Next on the long list are the rear quarters, and a door skin. I also need to get the front seat mounts located, address the abused rear deck speaker holes, seat belt mounts, and rear tail light locations. After those should be ready to having some small dent work and paint done.
