Re: Ole Brown’s new color

That's going to look good! I guess I can't convince you to go two-tone with it? It would look perfect if paired with a black pearl.

Looks awesome! I wish I was a paint and body person. My paint guy was halfway through working mine, it's in primer and guide coat, and then moved away on me. That's gonna look fantastic all done.

It's coming together nicely. Care to tell anything else about the truck? History, drivetrain, anything like that?
