Joes69c10 · 07-01-2007, 01:39 PM

Nice color choices.

JPPA1972 · 07-01-2007, 02:37 PM

what color is that, it looke awesome! Good Job

Tycoon4u · 07-01-2007, 02:50 PM

Thanks guys, color is burgandy by rayflex.

HeavyD · 07-01-2007, 02:52 PM

Looks good! I see you have a white roof so you will be using the chrome paint divider...how are you reattaching the little pins that hold it on? Reusing old pins or buying new? Do the new ones screw on or are they welded? Were the original ones welded on? Thanks for the help.

Tycoon4u · 07-01-2007, 02:57 PM

This truck did have a whit top originally but didn't come with the divider. I think I got the line straight enough to just color sand and buff the way it is.

MisterE72 · 07-01-2007, 04:11 PM

Paintbooth!! I don't need no stinkin' paintbooth. She's looking good.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-01-2007, 04:14 PM

Wow that looks good Love the bottom color..

whatnow123 · 07-01-2007, 04:14 PM

Looks great! Are you using single stage or DS paint?

Tycoon4u · 07-01-2007, 04:38 PM

It's single stage. The color is not quite as light as it looks in the top pic, there is a 400 watt metal halide light right above the firewall.

williamt · 07-01-2007, 04:42 PM

workin on a two tone myself I hope mine looks as good

JAKES 68GMC · 07-01-2007, 05:04 PM

looks good, I just did the very same thing yesterday. Didn't come out quite as good as your paint though.

ChevyDude · 07-01-2007, 05:47 PM

Double Nice Nice...super cool!!! Looking gooood!!!

PanelDeland · 07-01-2007, 05:56 PM

Looks very good I like the color.I would suggest you find a driver since to finish it by the meet you will be working on it night and day.I still doubt you will make it since the quality of your work is so high.

The paint divider moulding deallys are a little stud thats welded to the cab.When you buy a new moulding it comes with clips only.I suppose you might be able to pop rivit the clips on?
