Re: my 67 c10

Re: my 67 c10
That's one of my favorite factory colors. She looked beautiful painted. Did you do it? If you did, great job, and I'd have to take it back to that.

Re: my 67 c10
I would drive it for a little while the way it is. It seems since you sanded on a good paint job tells me you were not completely happy with the color. I would not touch it again until you are set on a color. A good way to go is by getting someone to photoshop a color for you or posting trucks with the colors you are interested in. Just my two cents.
