Pale yellow with white roof and lower area. Add the '67 body trim and you have a sharp looking truck.

Color: White top, red body.
Why: Do you really need to ask? Because red/white would be beautiful, of course

Re: the 67 farm truck is ready for paint ! vote and post why ?

Either of the 67 original greens or the 67 yellow.

Definitely not blue. Seems like 90% of the trucks that I see getting repainted end up blue. If the trend keeps up it's just a matter of time before all 67-72 pickups will be swb, fleetside, blue and white trucks. (Yes that's an exaggeration, but you get the point).

Red, nah. Seems like the remainder of the trucks that aren't being painted blue are being painted red.

I guess I just like the colors that aren't so common since it just fits the time capsule vibe of a 45 year of vehicle.

Dear Grumpy,
How are you? I'm fine.

You cannot have red. If you see red... well, your angry enough!
Green will make you mean... errr meaner!

Blue will cool you down and yellow will make you mellow!

So, flip a coin, Heads green... tails yellow.

Next question!

Here's another 67 in Vermillion red with a white top for sale on BAT. I just noticed that the white roof on 67's is all that is white, no door tops and even winshield frame is body color.

As long as you do the 67 only white roof scheme, I don't think you can go wrong. Note how the front cab pillars and other parts aren't white.

Also the side trim on the 67 and 68's is killer

If I had a 67, it would have to be medium green and white. Such a lovely combo. I don't know who's truck this is, I just stole the picture.
