Silver

sjarrett71 · 11-02-2011, 08:38 PM

Still haven't made up my mind. I probably need a whole bunch more pictures to help me decide. LOL

keep the ones you have now! I love the look of your truck I made it my desktop background (just till I get my own truck). very sharp.

Yes, I use my name that way I don't forget. I looked at your truck between the time you bought it and picked it up and you got a good deal imo.

silver, and I'd loose the bed rails to clean it up.

LOL.... I thought so, I use the same name over there, myself.

I really wanted a SWB, and looked at a few of them. They were either really rough, or really nice, but out of my price range. I've had to do some minor things to it, but all in all it's a solid truck. My plans are to pull the motor & tranny this winter to freshen it up, and stop the oil leaks.

ramey · 11-02-2011, 10:20 PM

argent silver, the orange doesn't look bad but i like the silver a little better. btw really nice truck man

j ripper · 11-02-2011, 10:22 PM

neat truck. as mentioned, the P01 wheelcovers would look really great on that truck with say a 235 75 15 tire. of course you would have to find the wheels too..

VA72C10 · 11-02-2011, 10:29 PM

Truck looks great in that new pic!!!

dan42 · 11-02-2011, 10:42 PM

Very nice truck. I love that orange. Put the wheels the way you want them - they look great as is, IMO.

krue · 11-03-2011, 07:13 AM

I've got a 70 that I am about to put a vortec 350 in and put back on the road. Already done some upgrades on it. We'll have to compare notes one day soon.

Gene · 11-03-2011, 01:38 PM

I'm neutral. I like them orange in your pics, but I also like the silver. Nice truck either way!

**RenoKeene** · 11-03-2011, 02:46 PM

You can always rattle can one wheel with the tire still on and then see how it looks. If you click on the Cheap Tricks link below and go to page 2, post #49 you'll learn how to do it.
Good looking truck BTW.

R.L. · 11-03-2011, 02:52 PM

My first thoughts are silver but thats a nice looking truck as is, if it were me Id keep it as is a little while and see how I felt next year, you have plenty of time. The more I look at it the more I like it, it is different and tasteful IMO.

Hubscrub · 11-03-2011, 05:04 PM
