I voted for the green on top of white(cream) one because it's more classic. Has kind of an elegant feel to it.

I also like the black on top of green in the latest posting. My new favorite. How about some door signage? It might look a little cheesy, but I'd like to see it.

The files that I provided for the door signage aren't really workable. It's my fault they're not there...I do want it done but I owe Carter a redesign

I don't have Carter's skills...but here's my quick version:

NTR72GMC · 05-11-2007, 11:58 AM

I would like to change my vote now. I like the second to last one now with the black on top of the green that would look hot

1lowdiesel · 05-11-2007, 12:30 PM

but with the boyd wheels.

NONHOG · 05-11-2007, 12:59 PM

#6 with #1 color combo
Green is good !

Orange · 05-17-2007, 09:55 AM

Different wheels? Please?
Not that those don't look good, but...they look good on every other truck that has them.

It looks great though - that is a keeper.

The wheels look awesome, as does the paint scheme (it's the one I voted for

)

Five spokes were cool 30+ years ago, and are still cool today. The only reason I don't have 'em on my truck was rally's were much cheaper. Are they a bit overdone? Yeah, but it's because they look awesome on these trucks.

I understand and agree about the tribal flames on truck #1 being dated, but the way that the flames are broken up and allows a lot of contrast looks so much better then the flames that cover the entire front of the truck. I like being able to see more of the base green throughout the tribal flames..

Before this I would have never thought of doing two-tone on a stepside, but it definitely can work. Beautiful work as always Carter!

Nice job Carter, I like (Personally) pic #4 colors with pic #8 tribal seperation

**special-K** · 05-11-2007, 06:54 PM

They all looked good, but that last one is the best for sure. Can't wait to see the real deal.
