roof has been worked and ready for paint, so the painter is finishing up 2 other previous projects and will be ready to paint by end of next week possibly, his son who is helping him got into a roll over accident (not his fault)recently so he was driving a nissan armada i think and all the safety features worked and saved his life, he walked out with just a couple of bruises and minor scrapes. so grimace should be done and delivered by end of FEB. cut n buffed and ready to be put back together also will have the painter make me a tonneau cover as well to hide the mystery that will happen to the bed and will be on display at shows

painter worked on grimace on march 25th he had welded in radio antenna hole in drivers fender and then used some kitty hair/fiberglass bondo to fill in the area b4 sanding and smoothing it. the weather has put a damper on getting it painted plus other cars b4 me had to be finished. hopefully it wont rain anymore and since the whole world is dealing with covid19 issues and all car events postponed/cancelled here in arizona / california until further notice gives me and painter plenty of time to finish grimace

painter sent me update on march 29th and i was like wow, i never expected the recent work he did on it. I'm not mad about it either in fact i should have took my truck to him first, I have seen his work and magic he has done on other rides. more updates later on

painter has been busy, went by april 1st to drop off snug top fiberglass shell that i sold to a mazda guy here in phoenix and he said it didnt fit his truck and the 1 i had on my red 620kc that i sold without shell and it fits the 521 bed with no issues cuz i took my 521 trailer frame and the bed that i got from charlie69 to get permanent trailer tags /inspection today. he painted the engine bay, inside cab,underneath the hood, back of cab, front of bed and will be 2 toning the paint scheme
