That's weird that they'd paint them with two different primer colors.
Thanks!
While buffing through the outer paint, I think it'd need to be the same color primer on the cab as the rest of the body, or it just isn't going to look right... even though technically it will be right.
Like I said, I hate "fake patina" trucks, but I've got a '76 Dodge 4x4 that's nice, and the paint is getting killed from driving to the hunting spots, and that's really killing me.
If the Chevy is nice from bumper-to-bumper, practical, reliable, and solid, having it as a nice around-town truck would be fine... but then I'd never want to take it hunting. I've got other stuff I can make pretty.
