RE Post

Thanks for the comments guys. I am like a kid on Christmas eve waiting to get a load of presents..

Bill72BB - Thanks, the color is off of a 2001 Honda Civic "Pearl Orange Metalic" Dupont.
dinnut - Yes, Had the original rims in the photo and the truck just kinda laid there. My son wanted to see what it will look like when we put the SS wheels on it. Lowered it a couple of inches too. I'll post the actual photo so you can see the diff.
67shorty - We were trying to get close to the copperhead color but wanted it just a touch darker.

Good color pick. I'm not all that crazy about the copperhead color myself.

67gmcss, I am trying real hard to find some used cragar SS wheels to put on. I don't like the offset on any of the original wheels. Another board member has some SS's but I am second in line to purchase. Thats my luck, a day late and a dollar short! I haven't been rushing to find due to the fact I am converting from 6 lug to 5 lug. I have all the componets but wanted to get her looking good enough to set in the drive way without the neighbors complaining. As soon as I get it back home and put back together, brakes and wheels are next. Now the neighbors will on complain when I start it up! He-he!
