Trying to find trucks painted this color...

This is my first truck and me in high school. It's a '74 Custom 10. Plain jane, very low option truck. Since, I've seen exactly 2 trucks painted this color. The last one was for sale on craigslist. Anyways, who has this color and can you post pics? Just kind of a trip down memory lane. Also, how common is this color? IIRC, the color was called like lime green metallic or something. TIA.

Re: Trying to find trucks painted this color...

From what I remember ..... I'm 51 years old now ..... that color was used alot on these square trucks.

It looks like some of your paint ..... along with some body panels are going back to the earth.

What are your plans for this one??

Re: Trying to find trucks painted this color...

Ah, this truck was sold many many moons ago. I got it when I was a sophomore in High School, like 1998, and sold it in 2001. As far as I know, it still lives somewhere in Crete Nebraska. I inherited it from my Grandpa and it was my first Chevy truck. I had a 64 International Scout pickup before, but I classify this one as my first truck. Yeah, it was pretty rusty, but the floor and cab mounts were in great shape. Needed trans work though. Too many burn outs I guess

Heres a picture I got on this site that I happened to have saved on my computer because I liked it so much. I'm considering using this color combination in the future.
