Nate,

I see you have been surfing other threads. Yes, the the truck is in the paint shop, however I have not told them the color I want yet. I am thinking 69 507 light Blue which is the original color, However I have always been a fan of Turquoise paint. When I was in High School, my first car was a 57 Chevy 2-door Bellaire hardtop Painted 57 Turquiose. My Uncle had a beautiful 57 Cadillac painted a slightly lighter Turquiose color. Sooo....I'm wavering a little here (The Bret farve sindrome). I have attached the 57 cadillac and 57 chevy color chip charts superimprosed using "Paint" program so I could see them side by side. The 57 Cad turquoise on the left and 57 chevy turquiose on the right. What do you think?
