I like the black bumpers a lot. Let's see them in white too

rustylew · 01-30-2015, 09:21 PM

Black bumpers and trim is sweet.

C10_ustacould · 01-30-2015, 10:32 PM

White bumpers... I need to figure out how to make the nose black and the hoops light bezels white, not sure I'll like it but I'm curious.

Mix up the grill and I think the white bumpers might work well... Just my .02¢

C10_ustacould · 01-30-2015, 11:09 PM

I like this idea for the bed wood and strips...

Nice work Buck! The tack welds look great, I don't think you're going to have any problem welding up your panels.

**Hart_Rod** · 02-02-2015, 09:58 AM

Looks good Buck!

slowcpe · 02-02-2015, 11:39 AM

Is that filler plate from PB? I haven't seen that one before and like it.

I really like the rendering of the bed and think I like the white bumpers better than the black, but that's a touch call.

**lolife99** · 02-02-2015, 11:58 AM

Man,... white is a favorite color of mine on these trucks,... but I have to go against the majority here.
You need the chrome.
Member Raguemoe's 67 swb is one of my all time favorites.
Sorry, but this is a classic look.

**lolife99** · 02-02-2015, 11:59 AM

Another,,...
The only truck I remember on here with this color/stance combo.

That is a nice looking truck for sure but the question is, would I want a truck that looks just like someone elses? I did learn something by looking at the pics, its all black trim and bumpers or all chome/polished. I also think the white bumpers look out of place, almost makes the front bumper look like a rear step bumper.

White with the chrome is very sweet! Guess I missed this somewhere along the way but are you changing the front clip?

I guess I don't worry about someone else having the same truck.
If you like the black trim that's what you should do.
I'll sit back and shut up. Ha.

mooseknuckles · 02-02-2015, 05:57 PM

I think the black trim look could work, but you'd have to do the bumpers too....and maybe some black forgeline pro-touring type wheels...a black top might be too much?.....but then again that all white 67 is sooo sweet!

Possmguts · 02-02-2015, 09:25 PM

Its your truck and you should do what You want... BUT I think a white truck NEEDS chrome trim and wheels. Just sayin....

You're such a rebel!! I value all... well most opinions, but certainly yours. Like I said, it's either all black or all polished/chrome so now I need to decide.

smbrouss70 · 02-02-2015, 09:47 PM

My $.02... Chrome!

Ok since it's one or the other, my vote is for Chrome bumpers and trim, it just looks better to me especially with the wheels you chose. I wouldn't worry about looking like any other trucks on here, look at me I'm painting mine red and how many trucks are Red. Besides I've only seen one white c10 like that and it's the one Keith posted.
