You should use the old cab as like a couch or something in your room lol.
What style of painting is used that you are looking for?

It's an enamel paint, old school single-stage. but it puts off a lot of fumes. If I can get my friend's dad to lend me some time in his shop it'd be great. I've helped my friend numerous times with his '75 Camaro, and a motor/tranny swap. Figure I could try and pull some strings and have no labor costs. I'm also considering throwing John Deere "Blitz-Black" semi-flat black paint during the course of body work. It's cheap as hell, easy to spray, and very tough since it's a tractor paint. And unlike flat black primer, it doesn't chalk up or fade. That would be temporary while the fenders, hood, and bed are fixed.

instread of mounting them from the outside, you cut down the mounting tab so it fits between the two lenses and mount from the back side. Used some allen-head bolts for a cleaner look.
