Re: I've Picked Out My Color-What Do You Think?

I like it a lot. Is that an 82? I had one identical to that back in the early 90's.

That is an 82. That color appears to be a one year deal best I could find. I'm liking it too. Wouldn't mind having that Corvette.

Re: I've Picked Out My Color-What Do You Think?

I agree that your preference is what matters, since it is your truck.

I am finding that color choice is just the beginning. There are a lot of other elements that determine if the color works. I think almost any color can look good if the overall package is right. Interior package is very important and you have already considered that. The design, finish and texture of trim can make a big difference. Ride height, stance, wheel and tire choices can change the way a color feels. Graphics and details like pinstripes can take it from bad to good. All part of the fun.
