I was in the LHS the other day and spotted this Parma '67 F100. I have 3 of these trucks, some of them are Merc's... so I thought I would paint it up like my favorite!

I used Faskolor green, beige, dark brown, and white on this body. The cab color is a mix of white, brown and beige.

Let me know what you think!

that is really cool........just a suggestion, if you really want the old worn look paint the body on the outside, I did it for a flat camo look one time, it worked rather well.

Ya, I thought about doing that but my truck would have no paint by the time I'm done with it! I might do over the 'rust' on the outside since the truck actually does have some shine in it (since the pic was taken I cleaned it for some reason)

That thing is just too cool... Awesome real truck (I really like those rare models) and even better R/C truck.

Ya. That picture is only a couple weeks old.
Right now the truck is stuck on the side of the mud road... :rolleyes: after having a little fun!

It has an inline six with 4 speed manual.
