Re: Airbrushing trim

I like the look of the two tone with the trim on these older trucks but not to crazy about the grime that collects behind the trim. Also water drips from under the trim long after you're done washing and drying the truck.

Not too concerned about using the trim to to protect the truck from parking lot dings. My late model F150 doesn't have any trim and no door dings either I'm the guy that parks out in the middle of nowhere to avoid that.

I'm thinking of recreating the look of one my Dad owned back in 69 it was dark blue with white on bottom and top. I'm not looking to create an exact replica as mine is a shortbox and has rally's and chrome bumpers.
Here is an old pic.
