Where did you do the bodywork/paint/etc? Or did you do it yourself?

I'm in Seattle and my truck needs some bodywork and a paint job, but I'm not sure if I want to pay a ton of money, nor am I sure I want to do it myself...

EDIT: It looks freakin awesome by the way, should have said that first!

Good job, that old girl is all purdy like. Almost a shame to drive it in the winter...

I work at a body shop, which is the main reason i was able to do this
i paid 0 for materials and had a guy here do body work and paint for a few hundred bucks..obviously most people cant do this but I am doing alot of work myself. Like the interior and stereo.
I work at TAS Rebuild in Renton
come by and ill give you a good price estimate

I'm studying to be an ASE certified master collision repair technician in New York. If I had seen your truck when I had still been living in Los Angeles, I probably would have driven to Seattle to have you guys do the work on my runner! Next you pull the body off the frame and hit it all, the frame, bottom of the body, the whole works, with some rustproofing paint (like rust bullet)! Congrats on a job supremely done!

thanks again everbody.. means alot to me that other people enjoy seeing this truck redone as much as I do!

to the guy who asked if it was Dodge paint...no its actually a Mercedes Benz color thats called Obsidian Black Pearl. I chose this color mainly because in the sun the pearls pop like crazy and it will buff out very nice unlike straight black, but when it starts to get dark outside it looks like straight black. This basicaly means its easier to maintain but i get all the benefits of the black mean truck look lol.

Also about the tail pipe..i actually am gettin the exhaust done soon...the pipe was rusted off just at the end of the muffler and they wouldnt let me go through emmisions w/ out adding some pipe to it..no worries I'll clean it up
