No I just finished my final blocking and I'm planning on buying the paint this week.. I'm not having much luck uploading my pics on here but I'm sure ill get them on here soon . I've been jumping back and fourth between black and prowler orange and finally decided to go with the orange...

Did you get your paint yet?
Yep painting the box together is a toughie. I split mine apart (48 Chevy pickup) and it did make it a lot easier. The bummer is the sides are welded to the rear crossmember, not just spot welds but a bead. I cut them apart and simply left the weld out. Worked fine, but I also never used it as a truck. If you were going to use the truck as a truck you would have to bolt it a little better or weld it or something.
