A pin-up & my C10, all for a good cause

Yesterday I had the opportunity to contribute the use of my truck as a prop for a calendar that is being produced by a local animal rescue organization.

My C10 never looked so good!

Great pics and your truck looks great! I'm a fan of the 67-72 longbeds and you've done a nice job with stance, wheels, color etc. Is that a stock color or a custom mix?

It took a lot of tinkering to get the stance right - thanks for the compliment.

About the color, I really don't know. A previous owner picked it.

The Wheels are US Wheel USW-68-8860, 17x8 all around. Was eyeing Detroit Steel Wheel, but the lead time was 20 weeks and the cost, well it was a lot more than I was prepared to spend.

A longbed looks great lowered when done right, you nailed it. It's difficult from the pics to narrow down the color, looks very similar to a blue seen on Blazers of the same year (trucks too), maybe one of the below, either way, great looking truck.

Medium blue
Medium blue poly
Dark blue poly

It is close to the medium poly, but I don't think it is dead on. I tried reaching out to the PO to see if he could shed light on this. Will be sure to post an update if I hear back from him.
