photos on the truck i'm building !

Looks sweet, if you are selling and can paint it yourself...I would throw it into primer and advertise it like that and include an extra on buyers choice of color, get a deposit and sling the paint on then... why waste good paint and manpower if someone is gonna buy it and repaint it anyway.

why is the door jamb primed???????

KEEF-- the guy before me had some nasty spray on rocker guard or something like that, i had to sand it off then seal and prime

Any metallic's are pretty popular. Personally I would probably lean towards a Viper Blue, or a dark silver like Smoke Poly and Gunmetal. Although the blue has been done a million times it still looks good.

One thing to keep in mind also, is the price of the paint. Some of the more popular colors like a metallic red, and blue, are pretty expensive.

I would go back stock so that way the engine bay and stuff match.

what do you guys think about white? I thought white would be nice and plain but wasnt sure if it was going to be to plain .. I'm also going to try and find a nice simple five spoke alum used set of 17's or 18's . the truck had a set of 17 inch eagles back when 17s were big and they looked good ,,lol..

if i was to paint it white and throw a set of 17 inch wheels on it what do you think i could get out of it$$$$? The truck is a 98 sonoma 2.2 5spd with heated leather , cc,tw,air,nice sound system, 47,000 miles .. All the body work is straight and clean ..

the way i see it...

your building the truck for yourself...

not them...

i know your just looking for help to point you in a direction but you gotta cross the road yourself with your own decisions...

just my two cents...

Actually he's finishing it just so he can sell it, so he's not really building it for himself.

I would paint it some shade of red.
