I sprayed some color today - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Chevy Fleetside** · 05-21-2009, 01:01 PM

Now I have to decied if I want to use one of these colors or try another one. Also what needs to be known is that the cab top will be white along with some body trim.

bmfpeterson · 05-21-2009, 01:09 PM

If I had to choose between those colors against a white cab I think the blue would look really nice. not too much bling but a sweet soothe color....... Classy....

Bishops Trucks · 05-21-2009, 01:11 PM

I agree on the blue.

70 Suburban · 05-21-2009, 01:19 PM

YEAH the blue mine is goin to be the red i think

MXmaniac · 05-21-2009, 02:11 PM

+1 for the blue.

**slepysal** · 05-21-2009, 02:14 PM

jchav62 · 05-21-2009, 02:21 PM

Me too. The blue is "typical". Nice, but seen many times before.

Guess it would depend on your particular personality.

steverino66 · 05-21-2009, 03:10 PM

Are you using the stock (fawn) interior color?
Either color would look nice, I'd lean toward blue

joe231 · 05-21-2009, 03:20 PM

I like them both....tough decision...but if I had to pick I would say the red.

4dranch · 05-21-2009, 03:37 PM

Is that blue or teal green???
I like the red also...Ooh and nice paint job..

**Corts60** · 05-21-2009, 03:44 PM

I'd go blue!

64GMCHorsepower · 05-21-2009, 04:08 PM

Go red! And please get rid of the fawn color......it is horrible.....

Unless you want to go back to the stock color, then I guess it's ok...

**Chevy Fleetside** · 05-21-2009, 04:22 PM

It is the stock Turquoise Poly for the 60's trucks. I think the red is going to better with my theme. I have the black Chevrolet valvecovers. Need to put the valve covers next them. I will deciede by the end of next week I guess.

TimE · 05-21-2009, 04:37 PM

Between those two, I prefer the red. The metalflake makes it 'pop'.

**Chevy Fleetside** · 05-21-2009, 04:39 PM

I just brought them into the garage and I like the way the Red changes colors when it gets dark. It looks nice under the light also. So it looks like for now I am leaning towards the red.
As soon as I deciede the engine will get some paint next week.

kizer · 05-21-2009, 04:47 PM

I actually like both of them.

However if your going classic I would go blue, but if your going a bit custom I'd go with the red.

I like red as well....but that blue sure looks good !!!

**Chevy Fleetside** · 05-21-2009, 04:58 PM

Ok.. Here is what I am going to do. I am going to use the red on my truck. I am just going to have to get another truck and paint the the tourquiose color. Problem solved..

joe231 · 05-21-2009, 05:00 PM

**Chevy Fleetside** · 05-21-2009, 05:30 PM

So my truck would look something like this. Differnt wheels I think.

MacAttack · 05-21-2009, 05:49 PM

retodd7711 · 05-21-2009, 07:36 PM

Another vote for red here!

jonathan-m · 05-21-2009, 07:52 PM

red all the way... the blue is nice, but its to "ordinary" IMO

Alan's Classic · 05-21-2009, 07:53 PM

I'm partial to red.
