I would have flipped the colors. The "heavier" color (blue) on the bottom, the "lighter" color (silver) on top.

On a semi-related note, have you ever thought it strange that a large number of factory 2-tone paint jobs put the darker color on the roof? If it was me, most of the time, I would've asked them to be inverted, or scheduled an appointment with the dealer's body shop for a custom two-tone.

Juergen, There ya go kidd-o, ANOTHER GREAT build!!! I really do look forward to seeing what comes off your bench next, they ALL come out so well.You sure got the knack Daddy-O. ya'd think you lived in HERE, the way you build, not in Austria!

Your builds are SO downright American that you'd be GLAD to see these rides in "Anytown" U.S.A.! This just goes to show that Hot Rods AREN'T JUST an American thing!ANOTHER GREAT build Brother, You da Mook!!!! :D:);)

Juergen,

A very imperssive build, and excellent photography. I remember seeing one of these trucks as a young man and just fell in love with its appearance and styling. I particularly like the way the body and wheel colors you chose work together.
