Re: Project Ants Marching 1965 C10 Short Step

I'm looking to go to a two tone blue and white theme and get rid of the black. Did some experimenting and found Rustoleum Biscuit Appliance Epoxy is pretty close to the stock color and less than $4 a can. Still have to do the light surrounds, accent color on the grill letters, and mirrors. I'm thinking of painting the roof the same color but will think a bit more before going that far. Probably will get the wheels too when they are off for brakes.

I'm sure I've not painted this exactly how the factory did it. I'm not concerned (Rustoleum-obviously!) There are great threads about it. And I may have to put some black back on behind the grill for contrast, but it was easier to go all white first than figure out where the transition needed to be since the body color option was already gone. I'll also repaint the bumpers to match.
