MJB1 Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 have painted the floorpan & bottom section of the cab with plasticote red , not an exact match but very close , if i'd had a spray can i'd have done the bonnet as well finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
