Re: Color Preference

Ok, I'll pile in with some food for thought: (by the way joja - nice idea, I've always loved war bonnet yellow, and it would look ALMOST like a factory choice on these trucks). Considering that.... How about Vette monaco orange as a twist on the orange?? (shown in 1st Pic on a 70 chevelle). 2nd Pic is a Tangier orange. Rest are dk olive or red-orange/hugger (except for the 2nd one in the 2nd group of pics - not sure what orange that is).

Btw, was tangier orange originally a fleet color only?

Re: Color Preference

This 4x4 REALLY moves me toward the Dark Olive. I think this is the same truck as above but with Rallys (VERY high-dollar 4x4).

I think you're right - the one I psoted has been for sale out of an INCREDIBLE collection for some time. it originally listed for $55K. Yes, $55K... Not sure what it eventually sold for.

But just think, if you left it medium olive, you could have a BEAUTY like THIS ONE on your hands....
