So, my first pick-up truck. I'm not doing a body drop or a lift with it, just normal height, original wheels/tires. Don't know about the paint yet, open to all ideas, as well as the interior.

And, if anyone needs the instruction sheet, let me know, because I haven't found one online yet.

I would paint it olympic white, with a grey interior. Otherwise you could do a newer model year cobalt blue metallic.

Got the interior halfway done, now i need to sand the seats and paint them. Painted with Tamiya Deck Tan and detailed with Tamiya Flat Aluminum.

yes, the engine paint and build up looks great. As far as what color for the body, I don't know. I'd like to see it as a daily driver. And subtle weathering as light dusting like the owner hasn't washed it in 2 weeks.

Got the undercarriage finally done, engine and drivedrain installed.

EDIT : Forgot to add, that I primed the body as well.

Looks good!

Take care when inserting the interior into the body. When it looks right to the Mk 1 eyeball, the interior is actually a bit to high, and the dash interferes with the windshield.
