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.

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.

I am asking the Mods to remove your post.
I've been waiting for paint for almost 2 years, and I'm whinning
like a little !

What color Green is that?
I'm looking to paint mine Green also.
Post some other "Daylight" pics when you get a chance.
I'm piggy-backing on your enthusiasm, to get me through!

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

Looks very good!!! Paint the rims or get a set of chrome wheels and it will really make that paint job pop.
