    I am currently restoring a 58 PG that was originally Ponchatrain Green and Sahara Beige. Someone over that years had repainted it black and white but I will be returning it to the factory paint scheme. Is the inside of your cab all Sahara Beige? This truck was involved in a fire and the cab was burned out but I do have a few clues that it was beige inside. I'm replacing the cab and front sheet metal due to the fire damage. I've not seen a blue PG as most that have come here are green. Can you post a picture of your truck? Tim Holloway in VT has painted his 57 W200 in red and beige and it's a sharp looking truck.

            I have a ways to go yet. I've been working on the bedsides, replaced the bed angles and working out dents. The chassis is degreased and ready for final clean and paint. I'm painting the engine tomorrow. The replacement cab is on a cart and waiting it's turn for bodywork. I'm anxious to do a two tone on this truck because all the others I've done have been single color trucks. Send a picture to me and I'll give it a shot for posting, 59redtruck@verizon.net

              Hurry up already I'd like to see it! I don't want to sound "christine " like but 2 tone all of them. How many do you have?
              I've known the the truck I've had since new. First I remember seeing it was @ the county fair, which coincidently starts tomorrow. 57 was a great year for Dodge in my hometown, but only 1 W100. My dad sold DODGES. Power wagons weren't common certainly not the non flat fender jobs. There were always flat fenders around I remember when my dad took me to the Dodge truck center in Mpls in 58, a shiny new red flat fender 58 Power wagon on the showroom floor

                    I don't know how many photos you tried to send to Ron, at one time. You might want to try and attach just one photo to each email. I have had some emails with too many attachments bounce back from time to time. Some email accounts limit the amount/size of attachments a person can receive at one time.

                      Unless it's more than 10 I've never had a problem receiving pictures with my DSL account. Beyond that I have no idea what the problem would be. I'll be waiting for the pictures.

                          Those were YOUR trucks. I did get those it was the name that threw me. Sorry I didn't get a chance to reply. The 57 looks great by the way.

                            Thank you. How come it says I can't post attachments? Can you put those former posts on this thread? Thanks The two tone really brings out the lines & body style
