Color

My 72's orange paint is starting to fade on me. I thought about leaving it the stock orange, but lifes way to short to drive a plain truck. I need some suggestions on what colors look good on the trucks. It could be what u got, what u've seen, or something thats never been done, but u think would look good. Im personally leaning towards a brghter mettalic blue, but well see. thanx fer yer help!!!!!

I once saw a '30 somthin' ford that was painted a forest green that was so dark you could swear it was black until the sun hit it. I liked it real well. My next project is going to be the deepest maroon you've ever seen (Gig'em Ags!!) and my favorite color for a vehicle is a DARK metalic blue. There's my input for you.
