Snapped a better Picture from outside today so you could see the new paint in the light.

I think it came out pretty nice. Still not sure if I am going to clear over top of it or not yet. It has some clear in it already.

Thanks Chris!! If you find fenders and need to paint them, I can get my buddy (former student) to mix some up. Just need your factory white paint code.

Thanks Chris.. I looked at Misty paint code. The code is 033. Make sure you let them know the year of the truck as that can make a slight difference. The paint code is the first 3 digits on the firewall tag under the hood.

I was letting Chris know what is paint code should be on his 88. I think they only had one white back then and his and Mistys are both 88 runners. I actually painted Mistys a newer Toyota color 041 Toyota Super White.

Here is a list of paint colors if you want to go with the stock colors>>> http://www.toyotareference.com/truck/1984-1988

I like to watch the commercials at the bottom of the screen.

I hear you. It's definitely on my list to remove the Body someday and repair everything. Or do a body swap. Maybe to a 3rd gen excab.

I was considering doing that. Or even spraying some nite shades tail light lens tint on it. It just lets so much light through.

I have never ever seen one in the flesh until today.
