I picked up this project truck and will be painting it soon, probably next week. I would like to keep some green (not likely to be the same shade)because of the jamms/engine compartment,... anything goes. I was thinking two tone with black over green or green over silver or green with stripes. TIA Here's a pic.

My truck is basically the same colour as yours. The only othe r98 in my town is the same green except the bottom below the lower bulger is grey. Looks slick.
