Cool build. My son is trying to talk me into air ride. Your truck is leaning me that way.

Doing the fauxtina paint job. Brushed the black, rolled the red oxide, sprayed the white and blue. Now time to sand out some patina.

Used the Duplicolor paint shop system for everything. Pretty pleased for $150 in paint!

Re: bagged 68 longbed stepside on wide whites

This is becoming a sweet looking truck.
I did the same air ride setup on mine, same bags and c-notch.
You might find out it rides too high in the rear, though.
I had to ditch the upper bag mount and bolt it directly to the frame.

Great job on the patina. I'll be honest and say I typically don't like the faux look, but your's looks very authentic. The graphic is a nice finishing touch.
