Custom bed side paint

I always have liked the stock look, but then I saw a few Cameos painted to look like a 57 sedan. Having a step side, it would be a lot of work to change over. But now a found a pic of a 58 I believe with Corvette trim. Looks very do able, may work on a 55/56 step side as well.

I'd think that both are the work of very talented airbrush artists. Both are great looking trucks too.

Re: Custom bed side paint

What did you search to find the red truck? My wife has always loved the corvette I'd like to find more pictures if it.

I don't remember. It just popped up one day. You could do a google image search for it. I have seen several of the '57 in various colors. Most are airbrushed. Even saw a 56 one time.

I suppose you could adapt real Corvette trim at 500 bucks a side.
