Got a long way to go but I'm getting excited

I just received my new tires today...
285/20s for the front and 335/22s on the rear.

Also, my painter sent me a teaser picture of the color I told him I wanted, not too green, not too light and something that will work with charcoal interior.
He said he mixed forest green with some grays and a tan to get that color.

These are the motivating things that keeps us chugging along on our projects..

Color looks similar to my old '64 Chevy II wagon.

The color goes from olive to gray to a tanish color depending on the light. I love it!
