Anybody have the same paint as me?

I have an 83 Scottsdale and I was wondering if anybody has this paint-job. Ive only seen one other truck with it. Is it an uncommon paint-job?

Your truck isn't rare, if that's what you're thinking.

I restored a 2wd blazer with the same paint scheme. I've seen several blazers with the same 2-tone paint.

That looks nice! How much did it cost you to paint it? I'm probably going to repaint mine next summer!
