Re: No Limit's "K-10"
I'm gonna follow this one for sure. RED gets my vote or red/white two tone with woodgrain mouldings. Looks like you're on a tight budget

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
Pale yellow for the win! Just enough different, but classic. Loved it on my Blazer and got tons of compliments

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
you gotta think when choosing a color for a project like this (as Rob is doing), it's gonna be photographed for likely a LOT of magazines, so bright contrasty colors are pretty important. Second thing, i'll also bet its not going to be wearing trim or any superfluous stuff period since Rob's trying to keep the weight down to a minimum. If one was to choose colors strictly on someone else's build or colors that has been done, there wouldn't be any colors left to choose from....not to mention EVERYBODY has different tastes....it's heard to please everybody.
I'd say Porsche Guards Red or Chevy Victory Red with either a silver or gunmetal grey cage/chassis. Chrome and black accents thrown in. With a nice "No Limit" logo on the door.... ![]() Tim

Re: No Limit's "K-10"

As for the 2-tone ideas.... The reason many are drawn to these trucks are their classic appeal. Adding trim does add weight but it also adds to the classic appeal. One could do the OE looking paint scheme w/air-brushed trim if ultimate performance is the main goal & still nail the 'appeal' factor. Knowing there will be another red/white truck of similar build quality on the tracks, I would opt for an alternative OE color scheme. The yellow/white OE 2-tone look (or solid color) would also work well w/the silver or gunmetal grey cage/chassis & chrome/black accents you suggested.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
Roadster Shop. It's not the 'same' thing you're doing, but it has been on the track & likely will be in upcoming events to continue promoting their C10 Fast Track chassis.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
It looks great, do you know if it has thier IRS in it? Hopefully we can match it up with the 'Bullit next season, to see a chassis to chassis comparison, of sorts.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
Why not just silver like your current rig? There's no mistaking you then! Nice work on the truck too! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
Some updates. Here's a shot of the front suspension mount for the rear axle. This will allow me to try some different ideas. Next is a shot of the door skin I made. i'm slow at sheet metal, but it came out good.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
What's up with all the holes? That will confuse them, after seeing your bar mounts I'm not worried about my ride height at all. Finished rear end mounts shock mounts pretty close to done, sway bar mounts next waiting on parts hint hint, I know a colorist if you are still having problems picking out a shade for your new toy!

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
I think silver is fitting. You're famous on the GG circuit as 'the guy with the silver truck'. This way, they know it's from the same shop...

Re: No Limit's "K-10"
Thanks, We really thought about that, it was my first choice. Most editors have warned us not to. We are really thankfull for all the press the 'bullit got, way more than we ever thought, but we've been told that they won't do that again for any 'non photogenic' color. It may have been the color that kept us out of Optima this year, we heard, "it doesn't film well, no matter how fast it is". So it's 'live and learn' time. It's looking like we'll be the guy's with the bright yellow one
