.. stock, it was white.. 2nd owner painted it "can-o-flage" and we're doing a temp paint of traditional style black & white. (see sig link for "progress" on that, lol)

Re: What color is your truck?

It’s not for everyone, but I’ve painted all my daily drivers gloss black. I did take a radical departure on the last paint job however and went with satin black instead!

It's some kind of brown. Not sure of the exact color cause I bought it this way.

Re: What color is your truck?

It's far from finished but you can get the idea. I decided to paint the lower part of the truck a satin blue and the roof a gloss white. Something a little different.

Re: What color is your truck?

Late 80's IROC-Z blue......painted in the late 80's...thus the reason for the color option.

Re: What color is your truck?

factory white over light blue - paint code 537 (the 3 is for the white top/side trim, otherwise it'd be a 507).

Re: What color is your truck?

My '66 is just like the Danbury Mint model, Saddle Poly with an ivory top.




The '65 I restored is supposed to be 507 Blue, but the paint doesn't match the original color- too dark.

Re: What color is your truck?
