I didn't notice it was a Ford. ;)

Your truck is absolutely cool. You've done a fabulous job.

I was thinking of blue also, but change my mind to dark metallic grey Swede, and gloss red 2 tone. I really want red interior, and not sure how that would look with your blue. I think it will look good, but no body else thinks so. What color interior are choosing? Your truck is going to look awesome. :metal:

Inverter 10-13-2010 10:44 PM

Re: my 98' Streetrod build
 
Thanks Dennis,
I like to keep the interior colors easy on the eyes. I am doing a lite machine gray w/scuffed aluminum accents. Everybody has their own taste. I think interior colors always look good in earth or neutral tones.
I like your metallic gray suede idea.

Man that shop looks slammed busy..

That blue is nice! Cant wait to see that bad boy all put together :metal:

It was my sons idea. He said Swede black is out. Everybody is doing it. But I still want the shinny Torch Red with it as a 2 tone upper cab, and black & white Dutch style stripping. I'm with you on the earth tones though. I like them too, but I like red interior even more. If I went with a yellow truck I had a dark saddle leather like picked out.

That is an awesome color Troy. Your updates always make me want to go clean/polish something on my truck, thanks for the inspiration.
