Nice builds. Anything else done to the crew cab? I wish I could paint like that. Everyone shop I have talked to wants $6000 or more to paint my crew.

crew cab cab is stripped down, just waiting to start on the chassis. As soon as the black truck is done im going to build the chassis for the crew cab.

Paint work prices have gotten stupid, Not to many shops want to paint a whole car or truck they would rather do insurance jobs. Their is a few shops around here that are quick to throw out high prices for paint jobs and their finished product is not very good. I do some side work if you wanna drag it down to this area.

Just for reference international quoted 7k to paint a truck like this lol. I painted this for a friend who is going to do the welding on my chassis.This was painted with single stage.

It's so worth the practice to learn to paint. I've never spent over a few hundred on a paint job. Most I've ever spent was on a base / clear and it was just over $700 cause chameleon was still a new thing and ran $250 a pint. Learning how or having a friend that can is awesome.. Co worker just paid $1500 for SprayGlo to paint his car, not the color he wanted and runs and overspray on everything..lol.
The rig looks freaken nice bro! Awesome job on it!
