I am going to paint the truck. The color? That changes daily between gloss black, satin black, sublime green, blue,(that current shade that is on the truck), hell even camo using house paint, HT/ to https://www.steelsoldiers.com/forumdisplay.php?23-Paint-and-Bodywork

I'm almost done with the small amount of body work that was needed then on to poly sealer and primer. My wife was looking at the 10 or so color charts on the wall as said she likes dark gray, non-metallic kind I used to paint the natural gas compressor plants I operated in the distant past. Hmmmmmm.... dark gray.

I really like the factory colors on that Bronco II.

I like the sublime green. I think it looks good on a mini-truck and hotrods, not sure how it would look on a lifted vehicle.
