Re: paint

theres several orange trucks all 80 models shortbedsmines a long bed so i thought id b the only two tone orange an pearl whire reason i thought bout that is because i was gonna paint it metallic blue an the other night i went out in town and i saw a buddy of mine wh had a 82 chevy scottsdale lwb an he had painted his mettalic blue same as i wanted to an i didnt want to copy him i want a unique truck that stands out not one where someone will c it an say thats a everyday truck i want em to look twice ya know so paint issues are gonna be tough a friend of mine said if i wanted to be unique paint it pink and i doubt ill do that

Re: paint
