I like red, but I think the white looks better on top.

Jonboy · 05-09-2007, 08:35 AM

I like the white, too. Maybe the red would look better if it was done with huge flake in it.

62chevy302 · 05-09-2007, 09:18 AM

i like the white.

1963chevyshort · 05-09-2007, 09:25 AM

yeah i would stay with the white. It blends in with the white walls

drewmangoo · 05-09-2007, 11:10 AM

The white looks good, really sets off the whitewalls.

Phildooney · 05-09-2007, 11:14 AM

White looks right to me.

**slepysal** · 05-09-2007, 11:28 AM

ChadMorris · 05-09-2007, 11:36 AM

David Flores · 05-09-2007, 12:22 PM

Hey John your famous !! I went to my old job ( American Tire Distributors)

and my ex co worker tells me " man go with some led tail lights, I saw some on a sic 63 there hella bright. So I ask him was it missing the hood ? " Yea!! he tells me " it has red rims wide whites, and a kick @$$ engine, I think his name is John" Yea I think I know him.

19GMC63 · 05-09-2007, 07:15 PM

I have to agree w/ everyone else on this one.

ClassicAutoResto · 05-09-2007, 11:21 PM

Thats cool man...I'm glad someone noticed my truck. Your buddy knows me by my first name ??

American Tire Distributors...thats where I ordered my 12,000 lb two-post from.

My taillights are hella bright...really bright !! I went with the clear lens, but I thinlk the red lens would of been good too.

Since my hood is off, the lights won't flash...I don't have that extra bulb in the circuit to trip the flasher. I might need to add a resistor in there for an extra load.

My buddy has a 69 C-10 with LED 1157's and his wont flash either, even with front bulbs...I even tried an electronic flasher. No worrys though.

Anyway, I like the idea of the speed-bat flake on the roof.

Looking good John! That '63 knee knocker of yours will be a nice addition to the line-up at the RNS meet on the 19th!

--Oh & just for the record, I'd go with the white top.
