Here's my forrest green metallic 67. I think you're just trolling for truck pics, but that's ok. LOL

Here's mine, Bright Catus Green and White.

MandarinSixSeven · 09-29-2005, 11:34 PM

Here is mine...Copperhead stole the paint colour from me. It's PPG Mandarin Copper, got it done in 2000 and it still looks amazing, too bad there is so much rust coming through

I like it because, even when it's dirty, it still looks shiny, notice in the pic that it is actually dirty (you can see it on the top of the bedsides)...

jbw0127 · 09-30-2005, 12:23 AM

Here's my work in progress 72 w/ I believe 99/2000 Corvette color called Nassau Blue.

Bubba4spd · 09-30-2005, 12:58 AM

I agree......great thread. Would like to see some steppers though, you fleetside guys have a lot of neat stock options.

Keep the pics coming guys.

I am glad you asked the question. I was looking for an excuse to post one of the pics I took this weekend at the GoodGuys show. Probably the best I have ever taken of her, if I do say so myself.

507 was the GM code for that year, I the full one written down, I'll look for it. I know GM called it "Spruce Green (M.)" in the literature from 72.
