I wouldn't paint that truck Justin, I love it the way it is! The most I would do would be painting the patch panels to match the patina!

Thanks Keith, I appreciate the kind words. The only thing I'm worried about is the passenger bedside in front of the wheel. You can kinds see it in these pics. I need to get some better ones

Here's a sticker that's on the drivers vent window. I think I might leave it, for some reason I really like it

Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane
The pit comes in handy for buttoning things up on the bottom. I still need to finish painting the passenger side head btw.

My magnetic base angle finder will be here tomorrow so I'll get the trans crossmember all bolted in and check it off the list.

Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane
If I paint it I've really had my heart set on BMW Marrakech brown. What are your thoughts? I really want something different and unique, but I still want it to be classy if that makes sense.

Personally, I think it looks pretty badass in this rendering

Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane
I like the brown!! I'd ditch the upper trim and run lower only.. Just my 2 cents.

You're right. It would look good with the lower trim only. If I keep it blue with the patina think I should add lower trim?

Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane
I dig the brown, too. That color looks killer in the sun. Pair it with a slightly creamy off-white on the roof and below the lower trim and you'll have a stunner

Couldn't agree more about a properly built vehicle wearing brown paint.

Have always thought they looked classy and different at the same time.

While the rendering looks great, I agree with others about the lower trim.
