Re: Opinions Needed On Color Choice
Keep it black so it won't look like mine when I paint it flat green . You're the one that's going to be driving it, you make the call.

Re: Opinions Needed On Color Choice
I've got the deal of a lifetime for you! Send me enough paint and materials to do my truck. Make it a metallic maroon or brandywine type color. I will paint mine and send you the pics. Then you can decide if you might want to paint your truck that color. I'm thinkin---This would be the best way for me to help you decide.

Re: Opinions Needed On Color Choice
The Forrest Green one above is fantastic.
Check out this '40 COE. It's my absoute favorite for the earlier-than-Task Force trucks. I think its quite close to Army Drab-Not! i.e. Army Drab made glossy. |

Re: Opinions Needed On Color Choice
i gotta say - i likes the greens too - here's one of my faves...
But it's also hard to beat a DARK blue. So many colors, so few trucks (in my garage, that is)... |
