    Nice, is that DP90 primer? That's what I used, although I used the cheaper primer to fill over it.

    It's gonna be a while before it looks significantly more put together, so I thought I'd share my progress.

    That looks very nice. 4' chop always looked more visual appealing to me. When will she be done? (Hopefully :))

    I considered less than 5" chop but at the end of the day I liked the proportions.

    In time for Portland Transmission show which is first weekend in May I think. I'm about two years behind my original schedule so I've thrown out the idea of targets.

    Great work, Aaron! It was nice to see the truck in person. It looks just as good or better than the photos! Looks like you're making good progress, too- let me know if you need a hand at all.
