Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

Great color for the trucks! Is it sacrilege to paint them other OE colors? Chrysler Rescue Green Effect is one of my favorite olive green colors.

Somebody did a shade tree paint job on this one, but she will get a proper painting in the future.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

How 'bout some dark/med olive trucks? Haven't seen too many in this particular combination with med olive on top. Is this an uncommon combo?

EDIT: According to the SPID it's actually Dark Olive/Med Olive 557

Like I posted on your other thread, the code 557 is hard to find and is often overpainted. Of the Custom Two-Tones the trucks with the darker roofs and lighter bodies seem to outnumber the reverse like this. A good example is Already Gone's truck above, its a code 556.

Code 557 is a 507 Dark Olive Poly body with a 504 Medium Olive Poly roof in the "Custom Two-Tone" scheme.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

I'm picking up a 557 k/20 Saturday. Unfortunately it's been painted solid dark olive.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

Jocko and probably others have probably seen these but, it's gonna be a get it running reliably, fix the rust bit by bit, then get the interior to stock Cheyenne appearance followed by the 557 paint and the Cheyenne exterior moldings/trim. Gonna get a 4" lift and 35's. Somebody has already swapped a 14 bolt rear In it so it will get a locker. Plan to keep the sm 465 or swap for an nv4500 but keep the 205 kinda project haha! I want it to appear stock in most all ways with the exception of some small details.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

Unfortunately this is all the olive left on Black Betty, the PO painted her black and red...not very well I might add. Looks like she had a white roof as well. At least he left the glove box sheet! I'm working on minimizing the red.

Your 556 GMC looked very much like Already Gone's Highlander above.

Nope, SPID says 557.... Dark Olive!

It's funny how different some of the trucks in this thread look. For instance DANTIP's truck looks very different from 4x4GMC1972's. I realize the lighting is different but to my eye, 4x4GMC1972's truck looks like the correct shade of Dark Olive.
