I like the "Navy" gray
Doesn't look like an original winch mount tho'

Cheers

The winch was not originally on this chassis.I had to cut the rivets loose on the winch frame that held it to my busted bent doner chassis.Saw the frame rails in the same location on this truck.And install useing the winch truck front schacles.And leaf springs They are different then a cargo truck.There are more leaves on the springs And the schacles Are off set to accomidate the thickness of the winch frame. .It is bolted on now i was going to rivet it at a later date They are original parts.
