Has anyone seen a truck painted this blue?

I am no where near paint yet....but i have my truck narrowed down to 3 different colors.....

-House of Kolor Orion Silver
-Dodge Viper Red
-03/04 Mustang cobra Sonic Blue

I have seen some other c10's in viper red and orion silver....but have not seen Sonic Blue on a c10

Re: Has anyone seen a truck painted this blue?

Yea that's a good lookin color specislly on a clean shaved c10. The black rims would be pretty slick also. I'm having a hard time deciding on paint color also.

Re: Has anyone seen a truck painted this blue?

Yeah....i thought it was hard at first....but it gets really hard when u get it narrowed down to the last 2 or 3 colors you REALLY like......as with me, i liked 2 different reds, 4 different silvers and about 20 different blues. Black is ALWAYS sweet but a pain to keep clean.....Haha

Re: Has anyone seen a truck painted this blue?

Lmao yea I understand all types of blue paint, there are do many different ways to go with a blue paint choice. After I order my porterbuilt front end and assemble the frame is going to powdercoat. I've got mine down to either black, root beer, or a olive type green.

Re: Has anyone seen a truck painted this blue?

That color is exactly what I'm using with pure white in my 2-tone paint.
It also came on the Crown Vic Sports. (Had one which is where I chose the color.)
Mine is going on as a mid-coat over white.
Sonic blue pearl.

Even though I love Red, that color blue has always been my favorite on 03/04 Cobras and Lightnings. Great choice.

Is this Jason as in Jason Rushforth of Rushforth wheels...? Looks like the truck that is posted on the PB build forums that he was doing. I was a hair away from pulling the trigger on those Rated X wheels in 22's. Now I know how nicely it works with the C10.

Very, very sick build Sir, regardless of who you may or may not be.

Thanks though!

Nothing fancy here, but a reliable driver in about the color you're looking for.
This one has trim which none of the other posted pictures have:
