The “78th FG Ranchero” paint job continues to take shape.:rolleyes:
The hood is Olive Drab & the underside of it is Olive Green. That blue isn’t some strange SBD or PR blue, it’s PPG DP60LF epoxy primer, reduced & used as sealer. Door & tailgate jambs will be olive green in a couple of weeks.
The invasion stripes will each be 6in wide. That fits in prefectly with the 30in wide rear wheel arches. The rest of it will be silver with the NG/NG script on the left door.
The plan is to have the majority of the paintwork done in time for Chino in May.:cool:
I have another GT hood that will have the black/white checker pattern on the front half with the OD from the front of the scoop back… both scoops are already semi-gloss black.
I’m still toying with the idea of dummy .50cals faired into the side of each fender between the top edge & the body line…… I have a spare set of “scrap” fenders to play with:eek: :diablo: 😀
As you can see, this is the “bubble top” version, however, I could transform it into a razor-back with the addidtion of a camper shell.. 😉
