Re: Paint Finally!!

Beautiful....Lovin' that color. Is it a factory color? No looking like something I've seen before.

Re: Paint Finally!!

Thanks everybody , The 60s theme was definatly my goal. as a kid in the early 70s there was one in my neighborhood that was maroon with the same type of wheels,chrome cowl vent and side panels, and a HOT 327 with a muncie 4spd.I loved that truck Sadly this truck has a crate 350, turbo 400 and 308 12 bolt. as my wife has claimed this as her truck:wash: The good news is she's not whining about my other projects anymore

Looks fantastic! Sort of an intensified version of saddle colour for that year. Nice.

Re: Paint Finally!!

Absolutely beautiful! Glad you went with a white top. I love the chrome wheels, too.

Also, it has a nice rake--nothing crazy--with no giant wheels. Perfect!

Love that you kept the 2 tone look for that 60's feel. Great choice of colour...authentic looking, yet intense.
