A friend of a friend did it in his shop/garage that's behind his house.
He's pretty meticulous and I trust everything he says.
It cost enough for a part-timer to do it. I would have probably dropped a brick at the bill from a regular body shop.

Wow, I really like the color. What is it called? I want to paint mine a similar color with white and this color interior. Kinda like a 50's era car. :thup: Truck looks really good

Thanks rltvader. That almost makes me blush. Then I remember it's the truck that looks good and not me. :)
basshound: It's called Lunar Green. Very nicely named, don't you think? Odd to imagine man hadn't been on the moon yet in '67.

I also have a 67 Mercury M100 Ranger but it does not even come close to looking that good. Now I want to paint mine!!! I love it. Very cool!!!
I think I will have to save a few photo's for my truck file for future reference and insperation.
