I was thinking about shooting the top of the cab white. The paint is a little thin up there now. I was dead set on it when I brought her home a few months ago, now the solid green has grown on me.

My first post! I've been lurking here for quite a few years, but for this topic I finally had to post.

Here's before and after pics of my 1970 Chev 4x4. The after pic is near the end of my frame off restoration. I think I finished it in 2006 so it's a few years old now.

During the restoration I added power steering & power disc brakes, converted to a TH350 Automatic Trans with shift kit and NP 205 TC.

It's not stock and it's not perfect, but it was a complete frame off restoration and I did it all myself (including paint, under less than ideal conditions in my garage). So forgive me if you think I'm bragging, but I'm pretty dang proud of the results...
