Help ID'ing this color... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Spray-Bomb · 12-03-2008, 07:32 PM

Hey guys, I was picked up this 67 GMC parts truck from Bighead & was wondering what the color is ???
It looks to be the factory paint, but I have never seen it before

I sat the hood on Killer, then cleaned & polished one side

These 2 really show the color well

Thanks, Matt

Pepto-bismo ?

PanelDeland · 12-03-2008, 08:07 PM

That right there is a former "Mary Kay" presentation truck.It's a very rare option.Almost as rare as the "Corvette" option.

Spray-Bomb · 12-03-2008, 08:10 PM

Oh shoot, I forgot about the "RARE" options

Almost as good as a "Corvette Optioned" truck huh, I wonder if the V-6 would push into the range of equal to

I've seen a truck on the forum somewhere that color..cool and different if you're man enough to drive it

*ksjh1316* · 12-03-2008, 09:08 PM

I was going to say Ice Coral Pink like Already Gones truck but heck it could be the color Tim mentioned

100%Chevy · 12-03-2008, 09:38 PM

That color was on my 64/5 GMC truck.I've always thought it was a primer!
My 57 is Dusk Pearl and my 65 Caprice was Evening Orchid.
All similar colors with different names.
G.M. must have got the paint cheap!

I think I am, at 6' 4" & purdy darn stout, most people dont bother picking at me when I wear pink & I have a pink jiggly puff on my rear view mirror

Although I doubt I paint my truck that color

Man you've got it made. I've never seen anyone with access to so many of these trucks. Thats awesome. Keep up the good work on Killer. Looks good so far.

a1953mdl · 12-03-2008, 11:29 PM

I have seen it on a 60-66 truck and a 60-66 suburban. I think they were both GMC. Didn't know they ever put it on a 67.

Spray-Bomb · 12-03-2008, 11:53 PM

Well in that link that GOPAPA posted it doesnt show it for 67, but it does show it for 60-66 GMC trucks

I wonder if it was a special order ???

Richard8971 · 12-03-2008, 11:56 PM

The color is cool. I have always like colors that are different. You would have to come up with the right theme for the truck.

Let me know if you find that bezel.

*project 67 sub* · 12-04-2008, 12:43 AM

it didnt show the gold lilke the 50th's had, that was originally on my 67 burb either

**special-K** · 12-04-2008, 06:58 AM

That chart showed`67 Chevy paint.Click on one of the two charts on the right.Palamino Tan was a GMC color used on the prior style truck through`67.I have the rest of that clip

.I bought my`67 GMC clip 10 years ago from Nebraska minus a hood.The color chips I`ve seen show it was darker and not at all like the actual paint.

caminokid · 12-04-2008, 01:24 PM

I was going to say salmon...but what do i know?

Spray-Bomb · 12-04-2008, 01:59 PM

I know right, kinda funny how far it has made it

glock35ipsc · 12-04-2008, 02:04 PM

And I bought it from a member in Wyoming!

Spray-Bomb · 12-04-2008, 02:07 PM
