Eric, Red definitely would be to much, just out of place I think. Black is the best choice.

The truck looks GREAT man. I am really enjoying this build as it progresses. Thanks for takin the time to post it up for us to enjoy. Awsome truck man, just Awsome

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

You guys should have told me when I first mentioned I was going rhino line the bed red. I have no problem with you guys letting me know what you think or your opinion. Thats why I post my builds on here so we can bounce ideas off of each other. I want peolpe to like the truck and you guys have great ideas so don't worry about letting me know what you think.

In that case I vote for hot pink bedliner.

As for a red bedliner, I must admit, it could work as a compliment to the red interior but it would have to match. If the shade was different, it would look like two things slapped together. Then again, it could be too much red. And, black has a greater universal appeal. It will probably wear better too.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Eric If your going w/ black carpet in the interior,You could do the sides red & fade it into a black floor.You'll have to spray the sides & the front first & wait till its dry then mask it & spray the black.But I wouldnt do all red,I sprayed a srt8t & I used ppg red tint in the liner material Holly Sh-t was it bright, you needed sunglasses to look at it.

This might give you some sense of what it'd look like in Red.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

My .02, red would look hot with a slim black tonneau (sp?)... maybe bed wood strips as a tonneau... I have a rendering of a 72 I did with the bed wood as a cover... looked slick

Leave it to someone to mess with your head... I was sitting on the fence, your truck is more polished, doesn't need a red bed to make it special, all black will be classier, red interior...enough accent. If you had a hard tonneau then the red box would be a great wow factor when you lift it.
But that flat '67 looks hot. It'll be great either way, I agree with your painter on this one.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Red paint and red rhino liner i think are two totally different things. Once you add that texture that the bed liner has i believe it would kill the brightness of the red that that flat black truck above has. Just my opinion.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

just to add one more option.....




Note: I would have personally painted the back part black so you don't see the red above the bumper......

His had a red interior also....

Alot of the new liners have a gloss and can be color matched to any color. But the cost is crazy expensive 950 whick I think is alittle expensive for something that is taped and sprayed. 450 for black

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

I took the steering wheel completely apart and the looms and had them coated satin black the same as the frame. The battery box will be in the bed next to the tank. Should look cool.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

I was just curious if it was a production piece or if you custom made it (like everything else ) Supplier info, diameter, direct fit or adapter.... etc

This is a billet specialies classic wheels and the smooth horn button and adapter for a chevy column. I had it powder coated. The wire looms are billet specialties too.
