Red and Black!!

ahh..

Black and White!!

I mean... ahhh

Black and blue..Doe

I would never have a black vehicle because they are too hot and they show dirt too much. But.. that doesn't mean I don't like to look at them. It's like the Boat or swimming pool thing, they are all great as long as someone else owns them.

I would buy the Red and white one. You should buy the blackone so I can look at it and you can wash it.

I go round and round with this all the time with my truck. I finally decided that I like solid colors on a 67-68 and two tone on the 69-72. The "factory" avaliable trim works better with two tones on the later trucks. Just my .02. Now I only have to decide on what front clip to use and then what color(s). So I guess I would have to go with red/white. Then again the black does look sweet. Not much help am I?

For a daily driver - Red / White. It stays cleaner.
Show / Weekend Driver - Black. Black is the most SEXY color there is! Bar None! Hate trying to keep it clean on a daily driver though. Darren

RED & WHITE! Of course I'm a little biased, check mine for a variation of the red/white paint scheme.
