Eric, Red definitely would be to much, just out of place I think. Black is the best choice.

The truck looks GREAT man. I am really enjoying this build as it progresses. Thanks for takin the time to post it up for us to enjoy. Awsome truck man, just Awsome

You guys should have told me when I first mentioned I was going rhino line the bed red. I have no problem with you guys letting me know what you think or your opinion. Thats why I post my builds on here so we can bounce ideas off of each other. I want peolpe to like the truck and you guys have great ideas so don't worry about letting me know what you think.

In that case I vote for hot pink bedliner.

As for a red bedliner, I must admit, it could work as a compliment to the red interior but it would have to match. If the shade was different, it would look like two things slapped together. Then again, it could be too much red. And, black has a greater universal appeal. It will probably wear better too.

Eric If your going w/ black carpet in the interior,You could do the sides red & fade it into a black floor.You'll have to spray the sides & the front first & wait till its dry then mask it & spray the black.But I wouldnt do all red,I sprayed a srt8t & I used ppg red tint in the liner material Holly Sh-t was it bright, you needed sunglasses to look at it.

This might give you some sense of what it'd look like in Red.

hot pink sounds good.

[superflysteiny]

I think black is safe so that will be the way I go

I have always liked this truck

[jbclassix]

My .02, red would look hot with a slim black tonneau (sp?)... maybe bed wood strips as a tonneau... I have a rendering of a 72 I did with the bed wood as a cover... looked slick

Leave it to someone to mess with your head... I was sitting on the fence, your truck is more polished, doesn't need a red bed to make it special, all black will be classier, red interior...enough accent. If you had a hard tonneau then the red box would be a great wow factor when you lift it.
But that flat '67 looks hot. It'll be great either way, I agree with your painter on this one.

Red paint and red rhino liner i think are two totally different things. Once you add that texture that the bed liner has i believe it would kill the brightness of the red that that flat black truck above has. Just my opinion.

just to add one more option.....




Note: I would have personally painted the back part black so you don't see the red above the bumper......

His had a red interior also....

[superflysteiny]

I like that but the red under the bumper is tacky

Alot of the new liners have a gloss and can be color matched to any color. But the cost is crazy expensive 950 whick I think is alittle expensive for something that is taped and sprayed. 450 for black

Holy crap, you were busy this weekend! Bed looks good buddy! I will be by tonight to drop off some goods for the powder coater!

[Novelli]

Black bedliner!!!!!!!!!!!!

[superflysteiny]

ok call me when you get time

[superflysteiny]

Here is the battery box lid, spark plug holders and steering wheel.

[6772owner]

That steering wheel is awesome! Care to share details?

[superflysteiny]

What would you like to know about the steering wheel

[superflysteiny]

I took the steering wheel completely apart and the looms and had them coated satin black the same as the frame. The battery box will be in the bed next to the tank. Should look cool.

[6772owner]

I was just curious if it was a production piece or if you custom made it (like everything else ) Supplier info, diameter, direct fit or adapter.... etc

[superflysteiny]

This is a billet specialies classic wheels and the smooth horn button and adapter for a chevy column. I had it powder coated. The wire looms are billet specialties too.

[FRENCHBLUE72]

Very nice I have got to order some of that satin powder coat to shoot on my parts...
