superfly68 · 02-06-2004, 08:37 PM

i'd vote yellow but there's way too many of us around!

how about midnight blue.

MAC67 · 02-06-2004, 08:46 PM

is there another color for these trucks esides orange ?

weasel29gm · 02-06-2004, 09:58 PM

Red,Black or Orange!!!!!!!!

FRENCHBLUE72 · 02-06-2004, 10:15 PM

Yellow seem's to be a hot color these day's..

*dtlilly* · 02-06-2004, 10:15 PM

Well, out the choice of colors given, I would have to say blue trucks look good.

TsgtE662 · 02-06-2004, 10:20 PM

How about Gold? Or bronze. Ochre

68CST327 · 02-06-2004, 11:39 PM

I wanted to vote Green, but... I suppose my second choice would either be black or orange. Blue can look good if done right, with the right shade of blue. Black is the hardest color to spray and look good on a truck. You have to make sure the body is STRAIGHT. But it sure looks purdy when done up nice.

ChrisK10 · 02-06-2004, 11:48 PM

Orange! I like orange a lot, several orange trucks around here.

(Oh yeah and the most probable color of my truck in the future

)

67cst · 02-06-2004, 11:50 PM

id say black, thats my favorite

krazy_texan · 02-06-2004, 11:53 PM

i am going to paint my 67 baby blue with white cab top and a white bottom

race2c · 02-07-2004, 12:06 AM

I like red (top and bottom) with white middle with the full trim package. Seems like I see a lot of that color scheme anymore but I still like it the best.

Va Longhorn · 02-07-2004, 12:17 AM

Im gettin ready to paint my 72 longhorn two tone... i dont know if you guys have seen the new caddys, but theres a new caddy color called " copper sunburst"..... beautiful!! ..... I placing it over and under a pearl white

bagged91 · 02-07-2004, 12:17 AM

Gordo · 02-07-2004, 12:19 AM

I'm partial of Chevy truck "red-orange". Painted mine with that with Dupont 10 years ago, it held up well.

71-longbed · 02-07-2004, 02:22 AM

I don't particularily care for it, but you have to remember the time when these trucks were built.

Smokin72on20s · 02-08-2004, 05:02 PM

looks like orange it winning, what kind of orange?

Bowtie67 · 02-08-2004, 05:38 PM

Several years ago I saw this 69 Stepside 4x4 SWB that had just came from a body shop painted Black & Silver a friend of mine was doing the Upholstery in. was really sweet. I wish I had taken pictures of.

Longhorn Man · 02-08-2004, 05:43 PM

I couldn't decide...so i went with all of the above!

Longhorn Man · 02-08-2004, 05:44 PM

How about red and green?

cc_bob · 02-08-2004, 06:06 PM

I chose red at the top but I want to paint my 67 step black cherry or candy red with BIG metal flake. Kinda retro-kool custom paint.
