RED !!!! something you can see from 1/2 mile away grey just blends into the traffic around you.

Thanks Ransil. Decided to go with a BMW orange. I think you can see it from 100 miles away...It isn't really subtle.

Wow! Love how the color turned out! Definitely a brighter orange than what I have! Gonna look awesome and can't wait to see it. I saw this truck at the Carlisle Ford show this past weekend a really liked the color. ;D

Similar I think!

Here are some pictures of the tub and fenders...the fenders have been color sanded but the tub hasn't yet. Pictures are inside with a flash (except the 2 of the fenders which are outside). Outside it looks incredible! Color REALLY changes in the light. I'm really happy with my choice, even though it isn't anywhere close to the 2 I had in mind at the beginning of this thread.

Simply beautiful!:cool::cool: Putting this color at top of my list, for my orange 76. Wonder how it would look, and what shade of white to use for my special decor strip.

Love it Kholding!

Thanks Fred. Actually still deciding between a white or black special decor stripe myself (vinyl). The rest of the parts are black so I thought a white stripe might look cool, or keep it simple and go black/orange.

That's a tough decision for sure...which way to go?

I'm hoping when I get it built up a little more I can post a pic and someone with some photoshop skills can do a quick preview of both colors. I have NO photoshop skills otherwise I would try and do it myself.

OUT-FREAKIN'-STANDING !!!!!

You say the pics don't do it justice , I can only imagine , since you can see a bit of color change happening on the curvy parts as it is.

I can't wait to see it assembled.
You must be soo freakin' pumped every time you see it now.
CONGRATS !


LOL , you ain't kidding , you are a far cry from the two colors you started with ... a refresher for everyone ....
