Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

That looks great! I love that color. It's very close to the orange I had on my sandrail (I named it Genralee )

The faster this thing makes progress, the happier I get! So it should be moving rather quickly!

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

I think I will have them powdercoated... Im not sure what color quite yet. Maybe like a flat black to match the interior, or maybe a wrinkle black?

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

OR I could "brush" them and put a clear coat over it and it would match the other metal going on the truck

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

Great Build!!!!! Did you make the one piece window kit yourself? or buy a Kit. The guys over at the 48-59 forum have a how to on it and I havent seen anyone from the 67-72 forum try it on thier truck. The Kits are pretty spendy and some dont seem to work very well.
I also didn't hear anything about what color your truck is. Tangelo?

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

I guess if I looked at the first post in this thread I would see that you call the color Light Creamsicle Orange. Not sure it thats the color or not?

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

Well that was the initial idea that I had, but I fell in love with this color when I saw it in person. alright Ill give in... Its Dupont Hot Hues Velocity Orange. It was originally made for Air Ride Technologies '69 Camaro.
see!

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

Thanks man! I really appreciate it all!!! Im really anxious to get the front clip back on so I can see what kind of rake it has all aired out... Im thinking the rear sits a little lower, but thats cool, because I want to put some tubular control arms on the front to bring it down a little more and clean up the look under the truck.
