got some touch up paint, turns out it's "7up green" the standard color 7up trucks are painted.
Ordered a pile of LED's, as it is the parking lights draw around 40 watts, brake lights add another 40 watts to that, with these LED's I should be able to drop that down to just under 5 watts + 4 watts for the brake lights, going to leave the head lights stock for now, but while sitting at a stop light at night it'll be nice to have the turn signals work.
Also have plans to order a PakTrakr, a gauge that hooks up to each battery, telling you if a single cell is getting lower then the others, and giving you over all battery health.
I've only driven this car in to town 3 times, and already I'm hearing from people, the guy next door heard about it last night from the mayor, and someone else asked if it was me they saw me driving "a wedge" thru town.

I also added more photos to the link in post #3
