Mention to the rare Chevy paint job was made twice. Must be really rare, i've never heard of it.

Looks like crap, to me. Crappy paint jobs are much more common that he/she can imagine.

Odd, not only does the color not look familiar, but GM never put scallops on vehicles

nor did they colormatch the grill and bumpers (well, I take that back, unless you had a white 67/68 truck!)

Not a bad looking burb and the price seems reasonable. However, I find 16 mpg very hard to believe, unless he has a 700R4, but even with that, the lift and tires would kill the mpg?

Also, it looks like he has a nice 71/72 copper/white cheyenne

It is rare....only been done once.

Then they realized what they had done....

One more time:

a RARE chevy paint job

Strait from the add "OVERALL it is a very NEAT RARE truck with a Chevrolet paint job you will not see anywhere else."

Because he is the only one with that paint job they never did.

I wonder who told him that was a RARE paint job..

Makes me mad to think people try to pull this kinda stuff off.... in an add.

Couldn’t even make the bowtie proportionate.

Oh, and they had that 4x4 sticker back in 71 too.......

Wonder if he is a board member??

Looks like a paintjob with a 55,000 mile or 55 MPH warranty

MBurns326 · 12-15-2008, 05:57 PM

The more I look at it the more I think someone ate a bunch of nasty colors and threw up all over this truck. Did he buy ever "4x4" sticker Pep Boys had?

nutsforchevys · 12-15-2008, 06:07 PM

I would rather have my paint job "well done" than rare! LOL

Stock72c10 · 12-15-2008, 06:07 PM

I've driven worse

The price looks reasonable to me and it wouldn't be tough to paint over the gray part and peel off some stickers.

bowtieboy93 · 12-15-2008, 07:15 PM

I wonder if h means the color is rare and chevy beacsue those are gm colors?
