Has every winter I make some kind of change to my truck & repair anything that is in need.
This winter I am doing repair to the doors where the old mirror mount holes where as didn't fill as I knew I should have & they where high lighting through the paint a little.
Ground out & welded up, than body filler, now have sanded out will spot primer today & wet sand the doors & front fenders out, remove the hood & do the same they.
Reshoot all & lay new flames heaver white pearl to match the bed.

Here's another item I;m addressing, redoing the upholstery at the door panels & the plate that holds the window switches has plastic mounting pins that screws thread into, these break over time, so working on a fix!
Cut to size & glued threaded metal sleeves (6-32 thread), in the position on to the plastic plate & will reinforce with a plastic repair product.
