I'm loving the color scheme, very Harley Davidson looking. You can never go wrong with a seminole paint job especially on a kenworth or peterbilt.

Thanks Dewayne. I have always wanted a black n orange truck. Wasn't planing it being a wrecker. Was gonna use my paystar, but the KW fit the bill. You know me. Old school trucks rule!!
