Calling All 505 Dark Green Trucks! Pics Wanted! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

68shortwide · 06-01-2015, 01:27 AM

Some of you have seen my new addition. It's in a yellow primer atm with a bit of poor bodywork and slathered bondo, so after that's addressed me and my dad (painter) were discussing. He'll spray any color I wish and my first thoughts jumped to black or a dark blue. After looking at the Spid and doing a bit of searching it came up at 505 dk green and white. What little trucks I could find as 505 I liked. So if anyone has pics of a 505 truck, esp 67-68, please post. I just want an idea of what it would look like. Thanks all.

Your right, dont see too many. Heres a couple i dont think ive posted. No 2-tone, just white trim. Base clear.

The truck I am working on now was a dark green however I don't believe it was 505 as it is a 1970. I am in the process of changing it to a mid 70s corvette green (still dark)with the two tone white roof as I am a huge fan of the dark green white combo.

Here's mine

My old K20 was 505, I really like this color. Bump to see if there are anymore out there.

From what I have learned for Greens, the color of primer will either make it lighter or darker. I shot mine on gray primer and it was terrible, put a coat of black primer sealer and it turned out great.

Not 505, but Dark Green

What color did you use on the grill and bumper? Looks different than normal white?

matt_field · 06-04-2015, 03:41 PM

It's a early 68, if I remember the early ones/cheaper package? Had silver bumpers and grille. It's argent silver

I'm going to try this on my smartphone, my home computer is down and lost all my good pictures.

Here's a period photo of my Dad's GMC 910, which I believe is that same color:
