I for one, think it would look a lot better in person, than the photoshop renderings.
The flip side, is most people into a specific classic vehicle, like them for the memories and era they evoke. Original colors are part of that. I can't help thinking most of us would hate ochre, or the original greens on these trucks, if we didn't have positive memories of the era they were a part of.
Bottom line is if it looks cool to you, it is cool, unless you're trying to sell or show it.

you make great points. (and how funny, my blazers original color is ochre!) so the original color is out. I have kids telling me orange and a wife that hates that idea because it reminds her of the dukes of hazard.... haha like you said colors often evoke memories.
