Re: Post your green truck!

My 1969 olive green C20 parked in front of Molly's Reach on the Sunshine Coast of B.C. Molly's Reach was part of a popular Canadian show that first aired in 1969 called The Beachcombers. I though it was fitting to snap a picture of my truck while I was visiting as it is the correct era for the show.

Re: Post your green truck!

How in the world did I miss this thread until now?!?

I just "finished" my 23 year project. Over the 4th of July week I slung the "new" bed in place.

One piece at a time.
And it didn't cost me a dime...

529 Med. Blue-green poly.
I got it as a mutt. I further muttified it with a new engine, transmission, transfer case, and different (straighter) bed. It was a solid color 1970 built 529 cab and bed on a 1971 K10 chassis that some cowboy in the state of Wyoming cobbled together in the 80s. I painted the cab roof white. I procured a paintable front bumper off the '72 Blazer that donated the tranny and transfer case. The rear paintable bumper came from too much stuff when my 16 year old was around 4. da-burb sold me the pretty darn straight tailgate out of his stash about 15 years ago. The build sheet tells me the cowboy that assembled it before I got it used 1968 golden anniversary interior. That is all I can think of off the top of my head.

Re: Post your green truck!

Got the paint today! This might be valuable information for someone; turns out DuPont/Nason paints still translate and carry the same color codes from 1967-1972. I got the 504 yellow green and 521 white. Looks identical to the original, although my mix guy said he added a little extra brilliance (whatever that means). Also, does anybody have experience with the clear coat below?

Looks Good.
I Like Green.
You really want to see if your paint guy will let you know what that little extra brilliance is.
For the reason of a Touch up or Repaint of a panel in the Future.
He may not let you know but it's worth a try.
Hopefully he is around next time you need paint.

My Experience with Clear is minimal.
As long as it is compatible with base coat is always a good thing.

That is a solid point man. Will definitely ask him for details. Good looking out! I did buy extra for touch ups but still.

Quite a tale, worth the wait I’d say, good looking truck.

518 Medium Green.

Even said it on the can when I picked up the paint. May have changed in 72, but this is a 71.
