Possible New Truck
I'm a 67-72 freak, but have had the opportunity to buy another truck. Question is, is this an original color for this truck? I haven't seen it in person, but figured someone would be able to tell me.

Re: Possible New Truck
If the hood has not been replaced probably Tartan Turquoise, that is what I see on the inside edge. I also see white but that may be an over paint. Look at the firewall, it will be the body color, if repainted pull back one of the rubber grommets, original color will be underneath. Also under the windshield rubber unless they pulled the glass and rubber when they repainted.

Re: Possible New Truck
So are you saying it looks to have been painted or not? I'll know for sure tomorrow.

Re: Possible New Truck
It APPEARS to be the original color but if I were betting, I'd bet it's a stock color repaint based on overall condition. Just my $.02. Pull up rubbers as Orrie suggested and find out for yourself!
