67 chevy lowrider project RHINO - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

67chevyv8 · 03-02-2007, 02:23 PM

I had an idea and I was wondering what you guys think. I have a 67 longbed fleetside chevy with a 350/350 combo lowered 4in in the back and 3 in the front with 18in chrome wheels and I was wondering what you guys would think if I painted the whole truck with black bedliner. In a way it would say street rod but also still remind you that it is still a truck plus I think it would look kinda cool. Let me know what you guys think. It is just an idea and I havent decided thats what I want to do but its up in the air right now.
Plus I just like the project name RHINO.

jkaylor68gmc · 03-02-2007, 02:24 PM

Honestly, that is a bad idea. Please don't do it. We have a toyota in our town that is half bed liner and the other hald has fallen off.

3/4tonterror · 03-02-2007, 02:41 PM

i dont know whare you got that idea, but forget about it.

bobthecop · 03-02-2007, 02:51 PM

bad idea, IMHO

sneakysnake · 03-02-2007, 02:56 PM

Well you would'nt have to worry about door dings in the parking lot.LOL

bobthecop · 03-02-2007, 03:00 PM

You'd sand your a$$ off doung a Bo Duke hood slide.

BigSky71 · 03-02-2007, 03:06 PM

Do you own your own bedliner application unit? If not, it'll cost you $2500 retail I'd guess.

check out some body shop supply stores, they usually have this stuff called gaterguard, it comes with the spray gun, and the stuff all in one.
not sure on the price, but i know its cheaper than a paint job

[edit] found a seller http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT

heres the spray gun: http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT

plus if you changed your mind, you would have a hell of a time grinding it off

if you had a rough rusty body, sure go for it, but dont ruin a good one

Probably next to impossible....

piecesparts · 03-02-2007, 04:32 PM

I was at a car show and there was a guy there that had his whole Dodge 4X4 done with different colors of bedliner. It would stand up to brush for sure, but the truck was UUUUUUGLY to say the least. Just my thoughts.

rophle1 · 03-02-2007, 04:59 PM

This has to be a joke; he can't be serious.

PanelDeland · 03-02-2007, 05:22 PM

I would only consider it on a real working off-road rockcrawler or mud truck.On a street truck it would be very durable but I doubt it would be very attractive.The other thing to consider is that 40 years down the road when someone runs across it in a barn it wont have the "Patina" that is expected.

**special-K** · 03-02-2007, 05:45 PM

Rhino looks like cottage cheese.I wouldn`t put it in a bed,even.You could prolly leave your truck as it is and it`ll look better than spraying bedliner on it.Spray it with hammerite!

weav1 · 03-02-2007, 06:08 PM

Only If Its An Off Roader

That was the first thing I have ever seen on this site that maded me belly laugh. You killin me!!!!

67chevyv8 · 03-03-2007, 01:13 AM

ok I was just wondering what other people would think but apparently it is not a good idea

bs25j · 03-03-2007, 09:20 AM

One of my buddy's dad did it on a like an 88 f150 4x4 I expected it to look real bad but I kind of liked it..I don't think I'd do it. It was line-x so it wasn't that chunky.

1LoC10 · 06-04-2007, 08:58 PM

Theres an old 40's something hotrod around here, thats all painted in orange rhino liner... and it has Orange Ruffy airbrushed on it... I think it looks badass if you ask me

68 P.O.S. · 06-04-2007, 09:53 PM

There's a guy around here that did that to his Jeep Wrangler. I must say, it looks pretty damn good, but I don't think it would look good on anything else. Don't do it!

oscareltemblo · 06-04-2007, 09:56 PM

Bad Bad boy don't do it....

LooseScrews · 06-05-2007, 08:41 AM

You can get the texture reduced to all but non-existent. The manufacturer said it could get it "slick as snot" (ewww!). We're doing a Boston Whaler in it....even the hull. It's your ride...do what you want.
