After emptying, removing and cleaning the body it’s time to start sanding, more sanding, and then do some more sanding. Some of this was done with the cab still on the truck, but it’s much easier now. It’s a lot of work though. Some areas can be done using a machine sander, but there’s a plenty of places that can’t be reached and have to be done by hand. But another milestone is met: to the painter it is!
The cab is rolled onto the trailer, doors attached and some loose parts thrown into the trunk of the car. And after a while it’s time to pick it up!
Excellent! We’re so happy with this color!
Back home we have to attach some parts before the cab is put back onto the truck. In part because it’s easier and because for some parts it cannot be done once the cab is back on the truck.
After rolling the chassis into the open, we carefully lift the cab and hoist it back onto the truck. This went very well and it was over within the hour!
