I like the gold. Subtle, but really adds a nice touch! Great job so far, almost time to drive it again!

BTW, Happy Father's Day!

Mike, everything you touch turns to gold so there is your answer!! After creating this awesome machine a little gold will make it stand out in a crowd and be different, not in a bad way either. Glad the gold is staying cause that is your personal touch!

[67cheby]

Thanks guys, hopefully next week will ramp up the progress pics, I have been building slosh Tubz boxes the last couple days !

[raull]

does the gold have anything to do with your interior ?

yes , the carpet will be gold , there will be a darker (bomber jacket color leather, with fat gold double stitching) and then the inserts on the seats will be very unique with gold accents in them ! The bed wood will be mostly clear with a goldish tint to it

[raull]

i thought so !!!!

[screaminchevypickup]

I like gold on these trucks but on the browns and whites!!! I really like the rendering that was done of this truck with the black in the trim and the red emblem... It's gonna be awesome no matter what you pick though mike!!

Instead of red bowties perhaps blue bowties? Then leave the trim black, or paint blue to match? And charcoal interior? Perhaps with blue accents?

Just tossin it out there.

Gold looks so much better! The red does stick out! imo

[oldman3]

Mike, I think the gold looks fine. I agree with you, that red emblem really sticks out on the light blue. I think you made the right call....Jim

[67cheby]

Come on , how about the rest of you , what do you think ?

[raull]

stick to your plan , red its not ugly, on the otherhand it will stick out on your paint choice, so i think gold will flow with your color and interior better than red or black for that matter

[67cheby]

well how about another question, i have NOS taillight trim molding and NOS clips....but it doesnt look like they are the right clips for the molding ? anyone have any clips , or can tell me where to get them , the places i use said they dont have them for the taillight trim ?

[RocketKing]

Truck is a home run, gold trim and all!!

[Dunenutt]

Seeing the gold with no other accents, is like looking at a paint chip at home depot. Right now it stands out like a turd in a punch bowl, but it will blend in quite well when there is more goldish tones added. Standing back and seeing the whole picture, the stripe will all but dissappear.

I love it... for what my opinion is worth.
