I know I'm the party pooper. Or I could be the designated driver.

I was going to assemble my rear brakes tonight, but realized I don't have any E brake cables for the rear.

Trying to decide on color for my truck......:fb:

Black.....Don't see to many and Alan would have to be at top of his game ;) I know that's not a problem for the master ;)

Red.....Too many, but very sharp.

Blue....Thinking of same color as my old ZO6.....

I'm going with a 2 tone Corvette Torch Red and black. I'll separate the 2 colors with a silver pin strip. With red interior. But that Corvette Blue would look good with black too.
I had a 93 Torch Red Vette. I love that color.

I'm was going to go flat green. But you think flat white might be better huh. ;) I'm really wishing they made long bed sides. Oh well I'm in no hurry. I'll run out of $ before I'm done anyway.:lol: Elbow grease and filler are cheap, compaired to air bags and tanks and compressors and stuff and stuff. I like the car.

Red with a white cap and the correct paint breaks would be a nice combination.

I vote for the Blue. It is a sharp color, and not common.

It seems like you might never find a truck then it pops up. When you go around the bodyshops during the day put some feelers out that your lookin'. You might be surprized.

What year was the one in Kingston?


That's cold. :haha: Insurance companies have no jurisdiction in my shop. ;)
