Re: Husband/wife project
I can't tell you what you should like. Myself if I had a choice it would be orange/white.

Re: Husband/wife project
Looks just like my ol '71. I plan to remove the 6 banger and 3spd and chop it down to short bed. I kinda like Black but am also partial to sandstone metalic. Heres a pic

Re: Husband/wife project
Between the short box and the C60 in the backgrounds, looks like you've got a few toys to play with, they look nice

Re: Husband/wife project
Pretty Rickey, what part of Jackson are you from? My wife is from Jackson. She lives in south Jackson. She was born in Raymond though. I frequent there visiting the in-laws and stuff. With the black wheels, what two-tone colors are you leaning towards?
