Re: Need some input on build

I've seen some with that belt line painted a third color to separate the top color from the bottom color and I've seen several that had the whole truck painted a solid color like that "sand" and had the belt line painted a different color. Maybe a medium/dark brown rather than the black with the top painted the sand.

To me the whole thing behind "bare metal" should be taking your rig to one big show in bare metal to show of your superior body work with no pookie spread on it so every one in the world knows what a great job you did and then take it back to the shop and finish it and paint it.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
