I'm thinking of painting my 65 Chevy C-10 truck like this. It will be red with satin black on top onto the center of the hood and the top rails of the bed. There will be a silver pin stripe to separate the colors. The interior will be red also. Plus a possible logo on the doors, but smaller than this. What do ya think?

So I played with the art program a bit today, your color scheme idea really got the artsy side of my brain going.
Lets see if I can post this for you...

bubba327 · 11-20-2011, 11:18 PM

I am thinking it would look good!!

I am also thinking that you should get started on it!!!!

watahyahknow · 11-21-2011, 03:27 AM

57truckguy · 11-22-2011, 01:52 AM

great idea... like the picsl

McMurphy · 11-22-2011, 02:52 PM

Black on Red will look very sharp!
Especially if it is a deeper red than cherry or fire engine.

Are you talking just a straight line pin stripe to seperate them, or something more stylized? I could envision thorns at body seams, and french curves at things like those kickazz door handles you put in...

kustombrad · 11-22-2011, 03:08 PM

When it gets to that point let me know and I'll stripe and letter it for you!

Where do you live? And do you have a web site?

kustombrad · 11-22-2011, 07:11 PM

I'm in Hesperia. I PM'd you...

Alan's Classic · 11-26-2011, 09:20 PM

Welcome back Dennis!! Did you have fun camping?

Strodder · 11-26-2011, 11:09 PM

Yeah, we had fun. Got dirty.

There was 12 Trailers, and Motor Homes that showed up by Friday. For thanksgiving dinner there was about 16 people that all brought different dishes.

We almost didn't go. Our generator wouldn't start. Since we were dry camping with no hook ups we really needed the generator. We haven't started it in almost a year. All the camping we did this past year was full hook ups. The Generator turned out to be a bad carburetor from sitting so long. They aren't rebuildable. And while I was trying to fix the running problem, the starter on the generator stopped working altogether. I gave up and brought it to the RV Repair Shop down the block. They said it was a bad starter. When they pulled out the generator to replace the starter they found that the main starter cable from the solenoid fell off. You can't see it until you take the generator out. Any way they were honest and reconnected the cable, and sold me a good used carburetor. Only $225 for everything, and I was down the road in 2.5 hours.
Just got back home. We had great weather and a bunch of fun. We had a lot to be thankful for on this Thanksgiving. I hope you all had a good one too.

watahyahknow · 11-27-2011, 03:31 AM

just run the generator once every two months on a little fresh petrol untill the tank is dry again that should keep it in running order
