I'm almost ready to start block sanding, wet sanding my 1984-5 W350 Crew Cab (ex Air Force Truck) after new front floor pans, new LH rocket panel, etc and looking for suggestions on paint schemes --- (off topic: the Lincoln Square Wave 200 and Miller MIG 211 each performed flawlessly).
Current color is heavily oxidized Fire Engine Red over Air Force Blue with original blue interior, but I'm x'fering a light tan'ish interior over to the Crew Cab out of a 1987 D250. Tan, of course, "likes" whites, greens, black, but it can work with a whole range of other colors if your selection is careful.
The original colors for that year aren't encouraging (below) and I would appreciate thoughts/suggestions from current crew cab owners and others what might work --- the truck is street only, no show. Haven't made a decision yet on Single Stage or Base/Clear Coats for the paint either. Any pictures you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
