  3. That's a kick-ass color combo
     
  4. thanx when i was getting it painted i worked at an automotive paint place and mixed the colors and made it to what it is. i was tryin to get the whole thing flat but the roof came out flat and the black came out more semi gloss but i like it for now, maybe in a couple months or so i'll add scallops to it again but who knows. oh and it's all single stage paint

    57 Ford pickups are prolly IMO the worst looking trucks they made in that era...

    ...except for that one. That is eye catching to say the least, and the wheels/caps and color combo is beautiful. Great job!

    That looks awesome. Is that a 57- 58 front bumper?
