Prerunner1982 · 12-13-2002, 05:33 AM

or this one?

BigRed · 12-13-2002, 09:01 AM

Personally, I like the second one better. I've always liked that paint scheme!

brad2 · 12-13-2002, 09:06 AM

Is that OSU orange??

**old Rusty C10** · 12-13-2002, 09:20 AM

i liked the first color scheme better but hey its a matter of personal preference

Prerunner1982 · 12-13-2002, 11:01 AM

brad.. its straight up red and black, the bed of the 2nd pic looks alittle messed up cause its white... should have primered it first.

chevychic · 12-13-2002, 02:22 PM

Looks good Jon. Did you have fun?

I like the second one

Prerunner1982 · 12-13-2002, 03:08 PM

Heather.. it was ok... didnt turn out quite like i had wanted.. but i guess that will come with practice.....thanks again.

I really like the first one, except up here we had a paint scheme where the black part is metallic charcoal. It looks hot!

That's the one I'm thinking of! I love the color scheme, especially on 4x4 SWBs!!

Txstruck · 12-13-2002, 07:14 PM

It would look better if it was camo like mine! looks good anbd definately stands out!

*1FaastC10* · 12-14-2002, 01:08 AM

i personally like the second one better, but would probably do the first. i've seen several trucks with the 2nd scheme, but never the first. gotta be different.

Prerunner1982 · 12-14-2002, 02:59 AM

BTW, they will also have silver strips between them.. not sure about between both. definately the top, not real sure if i want to go back with trim on the bottom or not....

79BIG10 · 12-14-2002, 05:35 AM

I like the 2nd one better. The colors stand out better with that scheme.

Prerunner1982 · 12-14-2002, 05:40 AM

i like the red bowtie against black though.. decisions....decisions..

BigRed · 12-16-2002, 01:18 PM

Hey Jon, look at this one!!! However, you better not be on dial-up because this guy's pictures are HUGE

79BIG10 · 12-20-2002, 03:34 PM

Now that looks great Jon!! I think that should be the scheme

Prerunner1982 · 12-20-2002, 03:36 PM
