Re: "People's Choice"
Congratulation Reno.
By the way, the original salesman that sold our '66 with special paint just returned my letter. He didn't remember the truck specifically, but vaguely remembered the buyer.

Re: "People's Choice"
I got lucky. The salesman is now the VP of the dealership on the protecto plate and the original owner of the truck was his buddy. The special paint is 70 Chevelle Black Cherry.

Re: "People's Choice"
I love that story. You really did get lucky! Not just with finding out your color, but also with the color being Black Cherry. Your truck is gonna look awesome when you get it finished painted.
