DON'T PAINT IT!!! Turd/orange paint is the latest craze! Chicks go crazy over it! That's why my Ferrari is in the paint shop right now!!!

Last July I bought one exactly like that for 50 bucks and took off all the parts and motor out of it and scrapped it for 125 bucks. I would have tried to get it running but it needed a tranny and I didnt want to put the money into it.

I'm definately going camo, I saw it on an 86 ranger and it looks great, I bought all the paint and stuff. khaki, brown, green, black, standard woodland pattern.

Update: Pulled the bed off, I'm going to trim the rear fenders about an inch to take the rust off and i'm repairing the dents a bit to make it look decent. polishing all the old chrome parts, should be nice. heres a teaser from that other guy's truck:



I love the look! I can't wait to get it done

Big Block V-8 that bad boy, leave the paint the way it is and then go kick the crap out of ricers/'vettes/mustangs/etc.....
Lol, that would be an amazing sleeper
