Mike I'd rep you for adding the brochure pics.. But I can't I'm in rep. jail again. That does get annoying.

Mike, that beautiful brochure pic got a rep from me! If that isn't the perfect truck, then I don't know what is! :-X22

David :)

That brochure is neat! Thanks for posting it.

My truck is a custom so it would have had no chrome side trim. I plan to change that with the chrome molding in the dent along with the chrome molding around the wheel well.

Thanks for the reps, both virtual and real, guys. I'm in rep hell too for a bunch of FTE members:-X09.
I scanned that brochure cover this morning and tried to post it, it got kicked back, too large. I checked the properties and the scan was over 40 megs! A little resizing was in order :-X04.

:-hijacked Just out of curiosity. Look at the truck's head on shot. Does the gap between the grill and bumper look uneven to you? To me it looks like the gap is wider on the driver's side.
You think they would try and make it perfect for publicity shots.

Okay, hijack over.

I did notice that...looks a little screwy. Ok, maybe "the perfect truck" was a bit much. But almost! :-X03

David :)

Hijack not quite over just yet...the rear bumper is a little off, too! :-X19
But it's still gorgeous!

David :)

I'm digging that visor too tonkatoy, that'd look good on a 4x4 SC I think

Not to hijack you even more, but does anyone know the colors on my sons truck? I haven't had much time to work on it since we got it and I was curious about the color.

I found a pic of a truck with the same colors, but inverse color scheme, if that helps.

The next time you're by the truck, check the warranty plate riveted to the back edge of the driver's door. The "color" code will give the paint code. Seeing as you've got a two tone paint scheme, the code should be two digits.
Post it here and I can decode it.

That was a nice '73! Thanks for the pics that is exactly what I was looking for. That really shows how the paint looks in bright sunlight.

I like green. I guess dad does too, since he bought this back in 74, and never got tired of it.....

That's "Ivory Glow" (74 only) according to the window sticker. I've just always called it Emerald Green metallic. Polished up, it looks stunning.
