Thanks. I will need to go over it again with the wash mitt but I can do that here at home.



Thanks!



First actual tow job for the Dually...



Not sure what the official name is for the paint but I am going to need to find out for sure.
.
If the paint code is 527, It's Maroon Metallic.

I watch enough Junkyard Digs and Thunderhead289 videos to know what an Iowa farm truck can look like, that one's a pearl

Thanks Gentlemen.

The paint doesn't look to me like it has any metallic in it. It looks like it's listed as 4517AA on the SPID. I will have to double check it in the morning.

Re: Bought My Uncles '69 Chevy 1/2 Ton Today

That would make it a special order color. Maybe compare it to #67 Burgundy Poly from the '69 car line?
