Day off Today, back to work tomorrow.  Did get the seeping fuel tank off and to a weld/Fab shop for Strapping and small patches to repair it.  $650 to fix, or $1200 to replace the tank with Like Kind or $900+ to install just a Fuel Tank, this one is split 50/50 Fuel/Hydraulic.  Still have a PTO on the truck, just lacks a Pump and piping.

Sanded the Grinding work and dings Grits: 180, 320, 600, 1000 then ran over the entire tank with a Buffer.  All back Installed.

Getting down to masking sanding and priming stage. Get a day off as to rains or associated issues unable to work at yard and is a considered Part Time gig so catch up days show up as did yesterday.

Hope to be ready to prime it out tomorrow.

Today's results, cab is Masked, the inner rocker attachment welds have been ground down, bottom of cab floor scraped off where will be applying Epoxy Primer tomorrow.  Have my over spray curtains back up, have some sanding on doors, the fenders and 'Shiny' spots on cab to where can apply self etch primer on those.

Providing all looks good after priming, will be ordering paint, returning to the original JM Code Toreador Red Metallic, no gray under panel this time.
