Sunny and warm here today so I got to paint alittle.
Was planning on Red for the truck but after checking for the parts I need I decided to go silver. I already have some blue carpet and door panel carpet and some blue buckets so that aided in the color choice..Don't see as many silver trucks and I already have a red one so hope I don't regret my decision. Still need to do the bed and cab doors and ran out of warm weather and sun but progress feels good anyway
Any way lets get to the pics

Solver · 04-03-2005, 05:49 PM

few more I like pics
Can't tell in pics very well but it is acrylic enamael in a starburst metal flake silver. Pics don't show metallic very well
Kind of see it in the glovebox door pic

Sweet!

What colors are you missing? (looks like you just about got them all now)

70 shorty · 04-03-2005, 09:25 PM

Nice progress! I want to know about the 2nd gen Camaro in the first pic.

HeavyD · 04-03-2005, 09:30 PM

Starbust silver? Was that off a factory vehicle or is it a custom? Thanks.

Solver · 04-03-2005, 09:54 PM

Silver is not a factory color as it is heavy metalic
70 shorty the camaro's in background were my boy's cars when they were in highschool
they just kind of outgrew them I guess
now they just decorate the front of my barn.

5150 · 04-03-2005, 09:54 PM

That looks a lot like my silver Solver, Yours looks sweet!

Excellent progress Solver, thanks for the pics

HOTFUN · 04-03-2005, 10:56 PM

Anoter fine job Solver. I looked at that truck on eBay but the pictures were not very good of it but the price looked pretty good that you got it for. And I bet you did some real majic on that cab too.
I got to get up in your corner of the state next weekend to pickup a 72 4x4 that you must have missed. ha ha
Nice job!
