Thank you! The truck is an older restoration that needs some redo, but right now it is a dark blue metallic. For my first truck build, I wanted to go with something different than what typically is done with colors and being that this will be a weekend warrior, wanted it to pop... I think the overall package will look great when it is all together.
Here are some additional pics (pics taken by PO 2+ years ago)
