dont matter what color you paint the frame cause when people look at the car the dont get down and look at the frame, but still no need to get worked up over a paint color, still looks good

I read it as an insult as well, and not very helpful. If you say it is a joke though, I guess I cannot say it isn't.

I appreciate those that take the time to rebuild or buildup a project correctly. You can paint any vehicle, but if it is sitting on rust it just does not make sense. Also, since your using blue, it will allow you to contrast other areas of the truck to match or differentiate accordingly. Props for your work so far.
