Finally!! A shiny vermillion colored truck!!
I've been on a quest to see one of these 67-68 trucks still in its non faded, lusterous state and think I found it. Is this how you guys remember them when they were new, the dark red color that is.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3ARTQ%3AUS%3A1 It looks good. The rest of the truck is nice and stock. I have a 67 that's this color with a white top. I might have to redo it in the original color. |

Re: Finally!! A shiny vermillion colored truck!!
The description says it was repainted in 1998, so thats not the original non faded luster.

Re: Finally!! A shiny vermillion colored truck!!
Not sure what you are getting at Al. Its been coverd since it was painted so I'm sure its not faded much.. I know it's not original type paint. I'm sure being base/clear it's shine is much deeper than it was new. Paint has come a long way since then.
Most of these trucks this color are powder,chalk pinkish in color now if they are original. |

Re: Finally!! A shiny vermillion colored truck!!
The truck in the auction looks like the factory "Vermillion Red Poly" to me. It does have a burgandy look to it. I had a factory '68 CST with that paint. I am sure the shade and brightness is different with new paint technology compared to the original paint.
