I gotta say though when I saw this thread I thought it was funny cause it was so precise. I was waiting for the next thread "lets see the indigo trucks with chrome grills, painted bumpers, and smoothy rims!" hehe, I am planning on painting my truck green though so good thread regardless

Re: Let's see the light green trucks out there

I know it's the wrong era but here's my '69 painted '69 light green:

Can also be brighter depending on the light that day. You can see the shade different between the shade from the tree and the sun beating down on the truck:
