Re: Almost ready for paint
The roof and hood will be black and from the door handles down will be silver. There will be a small green pinstripe. I dont know why the primer looks so shiny.

Re: Almost ready for paint
Looks good so far.
The 73-80 trucks had more to worry about with kinking hoods than the 81+ trucks did.

Re: Almost ready for paint
I think I will let it sit in the garage until winter is over. This will let the paint cure and I wont rush putting it back together. I cant wait to see it with some paint on it. Thanks

Re: Almost ready for paint
Sounds like a great color combo. Now you're at the fun part. I loved it when I got to where they started primering and the truck got to be all one color. Good luck!

Re: Almost ready for paint
If you look very close at the picture there is a 1/8inch lime green pin stripe. Thanks to everyone for the replies.

Re: Almost ready for paint
Looks great so far! I was thinking of this color combo for my dually so I am anxious to see your truck finished (I was thinking a red stripe not green though).

Re: Almost ready for paint
Here is a pic with the whole truck painted. It has to be wet sanded and buffed. I should have it back this weekend.
