Dave,
I can't remember what size of tire they are. Those pics were from an Ebay ad a couple of months ago. If I had to guess I would say they are a 31" tire...it fills up the wheel well pretty good but not as much as trying to stuff 33" 's. Sorry I can't say for sure... Brian

Re: Orange 67-72s?
A few days late...but I was just browsing this forum looking for some 2/4 drop pics and came across this thread.
I am going to be getting some better pics soon, but here's a few for now. The color is a Valspar Orange. It is called..."Orange." I have the code the mix #'s. It took me forever to get it where I wanted it. There wasn't a shade that I liked really. The closest that I liked to it was the Tangier and the Tangelo oranges - but I wanted something different. In different light, this color will look a little bit lighter. It is VERY bright orange. Here's somewhat of interior pic...an old one... http://blackbowtie.web1000.com/image...es/page-3.html I just covered and repadded the old bench seat in black leather. It also GMC stiched in it.

Re: Orange 67-72s?
That bed is awesome. With no ribs it looks like the bed has a few feet of orange paint poured in it!

Re: Orange 67-72s?
Here is what mine looked like before I took it apart last May. Don't worry the wheels aren't going back on it once I am done. There is a picture of the new wheels going on it also

Re: Orange 67-72s?
sounds like I got the same issue has you. Do you put it back to the original or get rid of the trim and paint it all orange. If you are looking for the original trim check out lmc.com they have everything to do a restore. good luck

Re: Orange 67-72s?
Sorry I didn't get to read everyones notes. But you can't beat hugger orange w/ a cowl hood and a role pan. Bigblock and A/C are nice too, throw in a tilt and buckets and you have it all. By the way I had to loose the trim they look better plain. Good luck Bigblockorange
