Same here, especially with unbolted body parts sitting around.

Here's hoping for a speedy & hassle-free paint job.

i think that will look great.

not sure i would be good with leaving my truck somewhere outside the gate. definitely did not leave it at the airport over slickstock, i got a ride from a friend.

Get a Trunk Monkey and your worries are over. You can leave it anywhere.

Good color. It's nice to have a garage that you have room to work around the truck.
