Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
Humm, not sure about how a painted stripe would look. Will it be like the 67? Don't remember what year you have oif its a Chevy or GMC. Maybe go to the photo shop thread and ask someone to do a couple ideas?

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
Ya... A stripe similar to a '67 side moulding. My first car ('72 442) was black with a side stripe like this. Love the look of it. The truck started off as a '70 C10... Not sure what you'd call it now. Lol.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
I'd run it through ps but the pics available + the color make it difficult to mockup for a decent attempt.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
Ya know the 67 is the only trim i like, Guess if it suits your desire then go for it. where i live trim is nothing but a rust promoter, humm, now ya got me thinking too LOL!.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
I like the trim look for that year. Can't image how difficult it'd be to paint them but if you're confident and it's your truck.

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
Not sure whether to do paint or vinyl with the stripe...? Started color sanding the box today.. Not easy grinding the shine off fresh paint..(on the nerves like)

Re: Project NiteMare-1970 C10 LWB build
Thanks... Not perfect by any means. Painted in my garage. Some dust... And my usual one small fly. Lol. Color sanding should take care of most of it.
