Ty, You can buy that color from any major paint manufacturer. They will be able to find the paint code, and show you some color chips.
Expect to do some bodywork on the back of the cab.
If it's a stepside, it may be easier to replace the bed, or tailgate, if it's too beat up.
You need to think about taking the bed off to paint the front of it, and the back of the cab.
Use a basecoat/clearcoat, which you should always do on a metallic.
Make sure you spray the basecoat "wet". Shooting it too dry will make the metallic splotchy.
Spray the clear no more than 24 hours after the base. 2-12 hours is better.
I've been checking in and figured the site had died forever. I checked today and bam it's back on. Awesome. I don't contribute much here, I just come to read and enjoy hotrod builds and good company...
