What I think is all that silver is a great base for a clear color or candy. Visors have never been my thing but non the less can add a touch of retro.

I am going to leave it as it is to represent a truck that was stripped down to bare metal and clear coated .

Visors have their place. I think on this build it looks the part and the bare metal cleared look kinda fits the overall build. This in kit form or real life is one that you either love of hate due to how unusual it is. But, this type of build is what pushes the envelope and creates inspiration to go further. Some of the coolest builds were considered pretty radical when first done. Cool stuff.

Added the door mirrors, figured that the realtively large mirrors would be good due to the chopped roof .

Ok, no argument from me. I get creative license like the 36 Ford I did in lavender and black and yellow one time many moons ago !

I don't have it anymore Eugene, that was back in the mid 1960's ! It was a chopped down coupe I built into a circle track racer. But it surely is the only car I ever did in lavender !

Contemplating the next project....I think this is an interesting possibility with a black and white checkerboard pattern on the cowling perhaps....
