I am in the same boat...I was thinking of a few different combos...kinda leaning towards a satin finish maybe a purple or blue?..also thought of two tone...

I was considering many different colors from this site as well http://www.tcpglobal.com/kustomshop/ksflatz.aspx

Maybe "classic white" with "bright purple" 60's style scallops? all in satin finish. I still am not sure yet....I have a while to think on it... what colors are you thinking for yours?

Clayton,

I am looking towards a light blue, glacier white, I was considering torch red, though there are two many red trucks around, my big decision is what ever colour I choose it's has to match with my rims, because they are also going to be painted and I don't want a combo that looks crap.

Nice truck !

I waffled on keeping my truck original color, opting at present to go with 1949 Ford colors, two tone.

Keep up the good work
