New pic of my truck!! Let's try this again - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well ok, maybe not...But someday it will look like this. If I can't work on it for real, this is the next best thing.

Ok, I've been playing with it and I think this is exactly what I want mine to look like someday. What do you guys think of that paint scheme and color combo??

For those of you wondering, this is the origional I borrowed.

I can post them for you if you want.

Ric83 · 01-14-2003, 03:20 PM

AHHHH!! lol Big Red, could you for me? I don't have any other host set up right now and it is taking a lifetime with dial up. (I know, I know)

Ah, that worked great!

79BIG10 · 01-14-2003, 03:42 PM

That worked. Looks great Ric.

LOHRTBT · 01-14-2003, 03:43 PM

NICE WHEELS!! HAHA

That is a good photochop!!

low 84 · 01-14-2003, 03:54 PM

my friend has since takin the cowl hood off the truck, i think he want to get a steel one. that one was glass and he said it moved alot at higer speeds.

i like the color scheme you picked out.

LOHRTBT · 01-14-2003, 04:35 PM

I need to get mine adjusted since it moves around so much on the highway...sometimes I wonder if it will take off!! haha

Low87 · 01-14-2003, 04:38 PM

Nice looking truck!

My cowl hood doesn't move at all on the highway, it's fiberglass and steel. I'm just getting rid of it because I want the stock on back on.

Myride · 01-14-2003, 08:35 PM

Nice truck.

brad2 · 01-14-2003, 11:13 PM

I like it alot. That look is not trendy and will look great for a long time.

Ric83 · 01-15-2003, 12:08 AM

Thnx. At first I wanted it all the top color but seeing that one got me thinking. I love the look of that one. And like brad2 said, it's not too common, so that really works for me. The only thing I am iffy about on that is the cowl hood. I think I may only go with it if I need it.

NICE WHEELS!! HAHA

I figured you would like "MY" wheels hehehe. Those will obviously be diff., but not sure on those yet. The ones I like only come in 22s or 24s, and I really don't think I will be going w/ that.

bill_ont_canada · 01-15-2003, 02:54 AM

Nice Colour Combo. I like it !!!

I hope I can find a used fiberglass Cowl hood for my '76

Does anyone know the weight difference between Fiberglass Hood and Steel Hood ????

BaggedC10 · 01-15-2003, 10:21 AM

If your in the market for a fiberglass cowl induction hood, check-out www.eHarwood.com online. Someone I know from another board has one and says the quality and fit is better than stock. Others have nothing but great things to say about them.

bill_ont_canada · 01-16-2003, 02:24 AM

Thanx Low C10 but I need to find a good used Cowl Hood it's a matter of finance.
They got some nice stuff at Harwood , Sure like that Red '32

Thanx a lot keep me in mind...
