Thinking about painting the whole truck this color I found. Let me know what you guys think.

It's tractor supply enamel. MF gray.

Not exactly a perfect match. But pretty close to the original color. I really wanted a darker gray, closer to a charcoal. But it's proven to be hard to find.

I like it. It'll need some sort of a pin stripe or something to break it up. Gotta love tractor paint. Durable and cheap.

Thanks ED. I had some trouble in one spot that wrinkled a little but I think I might do the whole truck this color. We will see how the test run gender holds up.
