I really don't know what color(s) to paint. I'm currently in the process of buying a copy of House of Kolors digital paint booth software. They have a 66 pu as a templete, but it has all the side trim on it. I sent them a e-mail asking if its possible to remove the trim. My truck doesn't have the trim package from factory and I don't think it even looks the same (looks good either way, just not the same)

Has anybody here ever used this software, if so what did you think?

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

I just started working on this truck. It's my first restore and first classic truck. "Able" is a 1966 C80 that was originally a fire truck tanker.

I purchased this in June '09 and after having it home for just 3 days, the parking brake blew apart and took out an oncoming car's radiator. It hasn't driven since then as I need to find a new brake to pass inspection, but here are some photos of it at its previous home.





If anyone knows of, or has a parking brake assembly for a Spicer 3152F, please let me know!
