Thanks, I wish I had found one as straight and solid as yours.

Cant wait to see this thing painted.
Just have to do like I did and build both. Now you will have one to drive and enjoy while the other is being built.

I was looking at the summit tools catalog that came in the mail today and saw that one of the golds they have is real close to what I'm after. I happened to have the color charts from them from when I was doing the C-10 build and sure enough, the Mayan Gold is an almost perfect match. What's even better is that it's only $89 a gallon, where the body shop paint was going to set me back between $600 and $750 a gallon. Perfect for this budget build.
