I'm really taking a shine to trucks with that style of red and white. Mind if I ask what the body paint code is for that? (I've just started restoring mine)

I've never really tried to push anything with the bumper, but that's good to know...I never took a real close look at the vertical pieces and didn't realize they were that weak. Thank you!


Just an FYI, but that bottom red might be primer. According to the paint codes on my doorjamb sticker, my truck still has the same paint colors as when it left the factory, but some spots where paint's either chipped off or worn off, there's red paint underneath...

I much prefer to do my own work, but I would farm out the painting unless you have a paint booth. OTOH I hate painting and I'm not much of an artist LOL

Good info, thanks for that. Yeah, I'm a DIY guy but with the season starting and the cash still not flowing I'm short on money AND time. I can say this: I am loving the price of that HF sprayer T.O.F. suggested.... Hmmm... A couple rolls of masking tape, some paint........

On the bumper, it's a shame they are hollow, but I should have assumed that I guess. Makes a case for the guys DIY'ing they're own bumpers. MAN I need a welder and a tutor. I just can't do what I want to do without a friggin' welder!!!
