My wife thinks I'm nuts and so do most of my freinds BUT I know I need to build it to how I want it.
I don't know what way to go for sure. D@mn OLD SCHOOL mentality of mine lately.

My plans are to paint the engine bay, cab interior, and bed interior with a green (Apple) or orange (Hugger) shiny exterior paint and probably DP90 (or the likes) on the exterior. If I ever decide to paint the exterior the interior is already completed.
(winter project) Since I will be in the cab more most of the time I plan to remove everything, paint it, and put it back together with upgraded parts and sound deadening insulation.
