The Winter one is not long after I bought it and the last pic is from last month as well.

I see. It's holding up nicely, gorgeous truck man. Love the darker green on the roof, never seen that.

My Dad's 1970 CST/10 with original paint. Not sure what color it is, but this is the truck that started the madness for me. My Dad has owned this truck since 1974, and this pic was taken last month.

I'll look into them of course, and I'm not ready for that kind of aesthetic improvement, but do you remember how much by any chance? I think that plaid was the original upholstery in my truck or VERY close to it.

Great stuff!

EDIT: Do you know if they are still in business? Not showing up with a google...

Seems to be a common color for 1969 ??

**Boog** · 07-25-2018, 09:52 PM

That was a very popular color for most of GM's cars and trucks from 69 to 72.

Truckseats is a board member, not sure if that business is taking current orders at this time.

My truck body originally was the same color as yours, it was repainted about seven years ago, I personally like your truck's green over an original darker shade. Mine is close to the darker factory green with metallic in it. Hate to say it, but I really like that Kia paint.

Not sure if this is considered green, greenish blue, aqua?? It was painted when I bought it, so I'm not sure the name or paint code.

Yep, thanks! I did a 30 second exposure in a dark garage and use a flash light to highlight parts of the truck to appear in the photo. 'Light painting'. I've used the technique for other cars and even for some landscape photography at night. Fun with cameras.
