Finally painted!

Hey everyone, just wanted to share some pics.

I have a build thread in the projects section, but wanted to share some pics in the general section.

Finally got the paint done on the little green truck. Finally after about 5 years and two different trucks becoming one, my project has a light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks for everyone's support during the build, enjoy the pics!

Re: Finally painted!

That turned out great. I think I like the green better, since it is a little less common.

It looks like perfection to me. I always liked that two tone green.

Thanks everybody!

I think may black out the grille again. I just can't make myself like the factory silver.

Re: Finally painted!

It looks really nice. Is there a reason you used the newer rear bumper? Was it preference or just what you had available? I ask because I know the sport bumper brackets are that much harder to find for the 81-87 trucks
