For you, I kind of like pink and red. It fits your personality.lol

But seriously I like the blue also. The black and red and white and red is very common. That AD truck looks really nice with the blue and red theme.

Re: Rods 57
truk was going to be a deep dark blue originally
not a fan of pastel colors (obviously ) or black
bright red, bright yellow, bright blue, bright green, bright pink works too

i like any in-your-face colors
these trucks wear those bright colors well

Re: Rods 57
I'm a fan of anything that looks good.lol I learned to stop saying what I don't like a long time ago, because right when I say I don't like something, I would see someone do it in a way that is just drop dead gorgeous.lol

That's my problem, I like them all. I have found a ton of nice ones and now all the good feedback here on the blue one, I went to the paint store yesterday and I am going to paint some extra parts and look at them next to the truck and see. I found a really cool red truck with cream over the red, then sand off part of the cream for a weathered look like some I have seen on the forum.

Anyway, thanks for all the comment i will narrow it down to a few and show some pics.

I was going to go with the color that's on that panel. Man let me tell you that panel looks even better in person.
