Need help choosing color

I am currently building a 67 SWB Small Window project and i cant choose a paint color. I am horrible with picking colors for anything i always just choose black but i wanted some other possible options and maybe some pics of your trucks. I am going for a sporty look. dropped shaved and real clean. the color choices i am on the fence about are a dark grey silver metallic, gloss black or flat black. Any input would be great

thanks
taylor

BTW does anyone know an easy way to re-size pics so i can post the progress of the truck

Re: Need help choosing color

My vote is on pink. Almost no one else has a truck that color.

Pepto?

Look at the gallery, plenty of fine trucks to look at. Black is not a bad choice, but in the color pallet there are endless opportunities...
