I've seen alot of patina trucks and love them, but I also like the trucks that "Pop" out of traffic. Anyone have pics of theirs or friends? Just a nicely restored popping painted truck!

Hugger Orange I love that color

Chance72 · 02-27-2013, 10:19 PM

When I
Drivin around with the fam and friends I always point out the oldies. They always ask how did you see that? And I don't have the greatest vision even though I'm young. I remember when I had my heart surgery about a month or two ago the first thing I did out of the hospital was spot a 67 goin down the road! And I was gonna go with a hugger orange with a white vinyl top but my friend has his 61 apache that exact color so I'm not gonna steal his light. I'm probably gonna restore mine to mostly original, with a sort of lighter blue to teal color with white vinyl top!

How about IROC red are Viper red as some call it now. I think it POP's out at you and I also can spot one of these models form a mile off. There is no denying their lines.
GM dropped the IROC red several years ago.

Nice trucks guys! Keep them coming! And rogergodding I'm like that too! I always ask the passengers is that a cop? Especially in my truck as loud as it is it'll get a cops attention quick.

This is really subjective to which trucks pop out. Different colors for different trucks.
