my 1976...Hawaiian Blue and white

[dropd80s]

My brothers 77. I really like this color combo also.

Im going to end up with the gm light blue and white myself. My trucks a step sides, so it will have the white top, blue the rest of the way, with white pin striping and letters. Ive never seen one with that color scheme myself. Has anyone else?

[truckfan]

this one is close. the light blue is maybe not light enough. its a good luck. love the two tones

[Desert1957]

Its a Dually and not a good picture, But I like the Blue and white..

Desert

What do you mean? Were you standing in a paint shop when you started this thread?

What color combo did you go with specifically?

Thanks truckfan. Thats really close to what im going for. I think my blue will be a little lighter, and it will be low with stock ralleys. But I think you got me about as close as Im going to see untill mine is done

J/D/S: We can check out your green truck anyhow. This thread will just get hijacked for all the blue/white combo lovers out there

Glacier Blue code 53 '69 Camaro and India Ivory '55 Chevy

my rims? mine are pro comp alloy. 17" x9. however i was garrentteed they'd fit but they didnt when i received them. so i had them machined out for only 25 bucks. i found out shortly after doing that raceline makes a pretty close look alike. mine also come in 8 lug. moto metal makes a similar one to is the 950? chrome. my tires are a 265/70/17 cooper zeon. its classified as a 33".

[true74enduro]

theres a couple mid 80s chevs running around. with another paint combo not shown here. its dark blue poly? poly i dunnos its the stock dark blue. but with either gray roof and bottom. or with white roof and bottom. i also i like that combo. but i really like my light blue chev.

[Rogue_Alphonse]

It's actually light blue with dark blue... the hood is black.

[true74enduro]

theres several truck that people own that live by me that have that dark blue shown on your tuck but it has white roof and white bottom. ive seen the same dark blue with gray upper and gray lower to.

[Rogue_Alphonse]

Mine was originally just the light blue, hence why the fenders and cab are. My buddy has an 87 Chevy that's blue with grey on the roof and along the bottom and it looks decent.

before you think about painting you need to choose something that looks good with your dashboard and rthe rest of the interior

you have a great idea i am doing the exact thing almost, im doing stock light blue poly W/ cadillac pearl white. unless if you want dark blue i really like ford shadow blue met. with gray or white accent. the cool thing about shadow blue met is it comes in different bases so it can be lighter or darker. ive also seen the shadow blue on a chevy with a lighter blue in the middle.

that glacier paints very nice looks dark thoug to be glacier. is it actual glacier paint you had mixed? or did you get it like premixed like tcpglobal cause theres is darker like that but still called glacier

In 1969 the paint code 53 was called glacier blue for camaro, mystic blue for pontiac, other gm brands called 53 different names. The paint is mixed in PPG Global line of paints. I went to several car shows and looked at paint on cars and trucks before deciding on this color. Color charts don't give you as good a sample as the real thing.
