need help choosing a color

Hey guys so we started fixing up my dads old 84 and we are having some trouble on deciding what color to paint it. We got it down to three different colors that we like so im asking you guys what color you think would be better. The pictures below are the three colors we are choosing between. Thanks

Re: need help choosing a color

how about the green car in the first pic. looks like a real nice color for these trucks alot of these pick ups get some sort of silver paint job.But if your set on those colors the top one looks the best.
