The Power Ram project that I just picked up has the paint scheme depicted in the below ad. At some point, someone rattlecanned white over the whole thing. I'm trying to decide whether I want to replicate the original paint scheme or go with the red/white prospector scheme that I had on my first Ram 50. I have yet to locate an actual photo of this original paint job. Has anyone seen a photo of one on the webs anywhere?

Might cruse body parts in the Car-parts.com search to see if you find anything, also different search engines might yield different results.

could it be a custom decals or paint job?

those graphics were tape done at the dock most likely. It will take a lot of work to recreate them without measurements from a truck with the graphics intact. The side stripes look to be one or 2 colors - the rub strip is an optional accessory. The hood stripe will be the tough one to recreate.

Check out a graphic design sign shop that does custom striping and advertising graphics if you want decals or a custom body shop that would paint stripes on but that’s expensive.

Never seen that style of wheels either that I ever came across.
