O&S is mentally finished for the day. I don't see any problems except for orange peel. Cut and buff or flow coat ahead. I only had to remove 1 nat. They love clear coat! Both sides are painted.

Over here at Fun city, I got started sanding. You can call it color sanding or cut and buff. Makes no difference. It's still tedious work. I think this could turn into a couple of days before completion.

End of the day at O&S. I'm about an hour away from both sides being color sanded and ready to buff.

O&S is now all buff! Ok, maybe not an accurate statement. :) The tailgate and roll pan are next.

O&S has succumbed to T.B. again. I wanted to drive it to coffee in the morning. Not to be. The turn signal wiring is dead. That will be tomorrow's task. I'm pretty sure the answer will be: what did I do wrong. :)

O&S was successful at solving the turn signal problem. When you look at the pic of a standard 1157 bulb and the led version, you will see the difference in the way the contact pins are shaped. When you twist the bulb in, it would allow it to make contact with both wires. Some how, the color of the left and right rear wires got wrote down incorrectly on my diagram. I didn't know I was about to become dyslexic . :)

Just don't get mixed up with that dyslexic cult who worships Dog.

That is a good looking long Ford, no two ways about it! 8)
