What Color?

[JlazyH]

I'm just about done with my Jeep build. Now it's time to paint it, but what color? I want to leave the bed black but not sure on the cab. Wife says do the whole Jeep black. It is a 1976 J20 with new everything. Even has 17" disc brakes on the front. It used to be a DOW Jeep with a utility bed and I took that off and built a flat bed. I may just prime it and let the new owner worry about a color. I'll probably just sell or trade it anyway.

I thought about that. Keep it about the original color with a couple of coats of clear. That way I won't have to paint the door returns or under the hood.

Woodland MARPAT would be my choice.

Have you considered a ballpark for an asking price?

Haven't considered a price yet. Everything is new. Front end, rear end, transfer case, tranney, clutch, springs--well you get the idea. iT HAS ABOUT 45K on the engine. It is a 360 with a 2 barrel. Was thinking of going to a 4 barrel but why. This truck is stupid fast and strong. 4 new 17" tires. It is a beast.

Man that thing is sweet, and a 1976 with only 45K miles that is killer. With I had the dough for this baby.

I too would go with a green similar to the original color

There is a local Jeep Cherokee done in a forest green that I really like.

I vote keep the green, it looks pretty good on it.

I've been obsessed with Jeep's Sahara Tan lately.
