You're looking at Maaco Red. Lol, not the greatest paint job but I can cruz it and not worry about chipping it.

Very nice. That is what any paint job should be about, "I can cruz it and not worry about chipping it".

Thanks for the replies everyone and it did take me a few minutes to figure out the picture thing.

I live in Orange County, CA so if any of you go to the local gatherings let me know. I was thinking of cruising over to the ACE in Huntington Beach where a bunch of guys meet-up on the weekends. Not sure if it's Sat or Sun though.

I just got the truck last week so I'm still going through it to figure out exactly what I have.

More later.

Welcome from me also. Always good to see another member from SoCal. If you haven't already, I'm sure it won't be long until you meet up with a great bunch of guys from "Pickups Limited" based in orange county.

You have a great looking truck!

You have a nice ride. Is that really a Maaco paint job?
