1968 Chevy C10 base front end color questions

[1968 baby blue C10]

I don’t know if anybody’s still subscribed to this or not. I finally got the bumper painted, well I had my dad paint it because he has 20 years body work experience. Anyways I decided to go with the original silver, for one I’m a stickler for originality, and two it’s different and seems kinda rare. I had Dad make it look like it had some age and character to it with some black fade, and then he cleared it with flat clear. I think it turned out really well. I’ll have to get a better picture picture outside sometime when it’s not raining.

Wow, that looks great! It really blends in well with the rest of the truck. Looks like it's still the original bumper. I have to say, the silver nose/bumper without trim is my favorite 67/68 front end setup. I have debated on switching mine to this style, but like you I am a stickler for originality and don't want to mess with my otherwise very original white nose/bumper setup!

Thanks man, I wasn’t sure how it would turn out but I’m really pleased with it. Dad even gave some fade to the bolt heads in the faded places, he’s a detail man haha I also gave her a CLR bath too and the results were amazing. I’ll post a before and after of one side.
And yeah I wouldn’t change yours either, yours is one of my favorite trucks I’ve ever seen. I love that color combo.

If you don’t mind could you tell me how to create the custom links in a signature like you have?

Hm for some reason the link isn’t working I got the custom text but the link says page cannot be found. I typed it up like this but without the spaces in the brackets. Is that correct?

I love the look of the white roof and nose but it might be refreshing to see one with the white roof and silver nose. That being said, it is your truck so do what makes you happy. Did not vote because that was not an option.
