Truck is back from paint and it doesn't look like the same truck!
Yesterday afternoon we picked up the 69 C10 from the guy who painted it...
  And a before pic:  Now we just need to put all the new parts on! Then it really will look like a different truck.

Re: Truck is back from paint and it doesn't look like the same truck!
Well, wasn't that the plan?
I'm jealous of anyone who has a truck that is painted and assembled and running....oh, and streetable.

Tink, where in the world have you been? Maybe I just don't frequent the same forums you do... The truck looks great, congrats on the new paint job... LockDoc

Re: Truck is back from paint and it doesn't look like the same truck!
Thanks everyone! The truck was originally that olive - snot green, so we felt that it should go back to green... at first, when I saw it I was a little overwhelmed - looks a lot different on a truck then on the paint chip. But, it grows on you... like mold...

Is that Oliver Green? My Grandpa always had Oliver tractors and he painted his truck with Oliver Green one time.
