60-66's (stuck in the 80's) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

likaroc13 · 07-01-2012, 12:59 AM

came across this truck with an almost undoubtedly 80's paint scheme...not sure why, but i get a kick out of some of these throwback/retro styles...in my opinion, most are distasteful but some are pretty cool....either way, they always seem to allure me...i was born in the early 80's, so i didn't really pay much attention to what was popular in the auto world at that time...but it's interesting and fun to look back and see some of the unique paint schemes & modifications of that era....so, if you have pics of any '60-66 Chevy/GMC trucks, Subs, or Panels with a crazy paint job or unique customization from the '80s, post 'em up!

Funny you should start this thread...

I've honestly been thinking doing a slight 80's throw-back for my interior.
The License Plates are from the 80's.
