Painting is done

Well finally after a year of waiting the paint is done.. It's has never looked this good.. I will probably sleep in it tonight... Still need to finish the bed floor and put chrome bumpers on.. The new upholstery is a few more weeks out but ordered... Have to wait on those bumpers though. It would get ugly if I asked for the checkbook again...

Haha I hate to copy someone else's but I just completely redid my bed, cab corners, rockers and front fenders and have been looking for paint colors that stood out to me

Love that color! Great job! Chrome bumpers will really set it off, but I think it looks good with the black.

That looks great! The chrome is really going to set it off - when you get to order it.

That is one FINE piece of machinery you have there. You must be very proud!

Is that the original color? I really like it! Chrome bumpers for sure.

I really like the color choice

And yes, chrome bumpers, grill and wheels would really do wonders

I concur.

I also think the 1982 - 1991 OEM Ford silver sparkle deluxe "wagon" wheels would look great with that blue.
