    Looking good! Mine's getting fresh black paint as we speak. Hopefully it'll be done in a week or two. It's a '61, but with a later year hood so it ought to end up looking like your brother's '65 except for chrome bumpers and grill.

    What color Black is that on the Apache? is is a primer, Flat, etc. Ilike the look very much and would be interested in a paint Code if you have one.

    Your trucks look good. Here's mine.

    We must be thinking along the same lines. Mine is a '62. These are the first outside photos from this weekend. Please excuse the dirt. It was too cold to wash it.
