Just doing a quick poll here. Want to know what color combo I should go with. The OD green is the factory military color so it would be easier to cover. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

This is just a rattle can resto for now until I can get all the running gear fixed/updated. To be honest, some of my students that I teach helped quite a bit with the sanding and prep work on it. 1 student was covered in 20 yr old primer that he sanded off the box side and was smiling from ear to ear. I wish I had more time during the day to teach some of this stuff, but alas it is not an approved curriculum.

The green looks pretty tough with the black graphics. Is that vinyl or paint?

Thanks guys, looks like that will have to be on hold till I can get the trans swapped and figure out the funk noise while driving down the highway. Took a little trip today and on my way home the dang thing was almost unbearable to drive at 60 mph. Not sure what the heck is going on but I think it may be the trans/clutch. I guess after 41 years it may be time to do some service to that area of the truck. I think it is still stock components besides the crappy universal 3 spd shifter that I replaced back in 2002.
