Looks like a nice solid truck to start with! :thup: Nice color combination, my highboy has the same color combo.

Thank's :) I figured out it's Swiss Aqua and Wimbledon White. The truck is very solid. Imported from Idaho 2 years ago.

I have a hard time to find the recipe for the paint. I would like to use the PPG Delfleet system, but both the Wibledon White and the Swiss Aqua is to old to find a code for in Delfleet.....

I will replace all the bushings with Energy Suspension Kits. I had a hard time finding the correct part numbers. The leaf spring bushings were all 1 3/8" Diameter.
