Re: until i can afford a paint job...which looks better
I like the white better. It looks more "period" correct to me. But, if it was me saving up for a paint job, I would leave it alone until I had the coin to do it all at once.

Re: until i can afford a paint job...which looks better
I would rough it all up and hit it with some satin black. Or you could bring it up here and get a budget paint job...

Re: until i can afford a paint job...which looks better
If I were you I would take the money you would waste two toning your truck and put it towards having those terrible looking cab lights filled and shoot the roof white and toss rain caps on the windows that would clean up the look of your ride.

Re: until i can afford a paint job...which looks better
i think it should be left alone...
it looks good dude....if u are really bored... do some landscaping or voulnteer work.. dont hurt your truck... (i know pot calling the kettle black)... i think the all green looks great until you can save some cash.. the money spent on rattlebombing or what not.. will take away from the final deal...or prolong it etc...
