Hello, hoping you guys could help me out. What was the factory front end colors for base model 1968 C10s? My top, including A pillars are white. My grille, grille inserts, and headlight bezels are all silver. And appear to have not been repainted. What I really want to know is a silver bumper and nose factory or should it be white? As of right now I am planning on painting them both flat white and roughing it up a little to match the rest of the truck. Any opinions?
Any help would be appreciated. I added a poll because I’m having a little trouble deciding for myself.

Once you go White, you know you're Right.

Nice truck. And yeah I like the white a lot too. I already had the paint to do the front end but mine being white top and silver front end was determined to be a rare factory combo, so I decided to keep it.

Sorry guys this is a somewhat old thread, the only reason it was brought back was I posted pictures of the bumper after it was painted silver for the guys who were already subscribed. Thanks for the comments though. Love that old picture.

My 68 Custom has a white top / white nose

Consider this thread closed unless someone just wants to discuss front end colors.
Here’s some more pics of the newly painted bumper I took today. One at home, one at college. I love the way it turned out.

I think you should change it up and go with the white nose

Just messing with ya. I found it funny this thread got revived again AFTER you added pics showing your final decision. Lookin' good.

I'm reeaally thinken about it haha. I'm not really sure how that happened. Must've just read the original post and replied. I couldn't believe how many views this thread ended up getting. It is an interesting topic I guess.
And thanks for the compliment man.
