Paint options
 
My 72 was originally that red orange color with a white roof, and currently it is in all primer. I am going to paint the firewall first, and with the motor coming out in a couple days, I have to start deciding on a color soon.
So here's what im thinking:
My truck is lowered quick a bit, and im looking on achieving the low and mean sort of look.
Do I paint it the original colors? Red orange and white roof? Less mean but still has the restomod vibe.
My favorite factory color for these era trucks is Dark Olive Poly. Green is my favorite color, plus it's dark enough to help achieve my look.
Then Jeep has this sick color on new wranglers called Anvil grey. That will definitely look badass, but I'm sure being a newer color the paint is expensive and its not an original color for 67-72 trucks.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Also- believe it or not I've narrowed down my ideas a lot haha:chevy:
