I also have to agree with you too! I think with everything done to the truck a little classic paint job would be cool. My first choice for it was the 503 light green (sea foam) I still have that in the back of my mind.

Yes it does, I've never saw a shade of brown like that one

LOL I don't blame you there! I never really was either until I saw this one

I went to pick up a pizza a couple of weeks ago and in the parking lot was a tricked out blazer of our years, slammed, four wheel slotted discs, nice interior. The paint? What paint? it was bare metal with clear applied directly to it. Very unique and very nice, I think your truck would be a perfect candidate for this treatment since its wow factor is in the chassis. Just a thought, but I still vote for brown if you do go with paint.

I have had more people say that then anything about this truck! to leave it just how it is. I do like it it but living here in Ohio I would have a lot of rust problems I would have to stay on top of

Super Sweet build. I think the truck is going to be perfect. I would go with the Beamer Brown. What ever you choose will be just as badass as the rest of the truck! keeep it up

Columbus Goodguys 2012IMG_0923.MOV - YouTube

This is the 2nd or 3rd run at the Columbus Goodguys, and we have the rear squat issues straightened out now, had to play around with the vette suspension . Haven't got to take it back to a autocross track since we did but it should really help.

WOW!!! That truck sounds nasty!!

Well as of 2 nights ago the tear down of the truck has began.

widewhite70 · 09-06-2012, 10:53 AM

The start of the piles of parts that need cleaned, painted, or polished..

widewhite70 · 09-06-2012, 10:56 AM

Pulled the engine and transmission last night. It's now down to the body sitting on the chassis. It came apart a lot faster then it went together lol although all of this did start just around this time last year.

gringoloco · 09-06-2012, 12:14 PM

This is gonna be good. Here we go!

I gotta say that the Marrakesh Brown with a cream top would really good and also really unique.

BTW all the fab work is just fantastic, I will be following this for sure!

XxCHEVYMANxX · 09-06-2012, 12:47 PM

Super Cool build ! I like the brown too. maybe a little bias though.
