Candy Green Paint - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

laxplaya37 · 04-05-2004, 06:41 PM

Do any of you have pictures of our year trucks or any kind of car with a Metallic Candy Green Paint.. I was thinking it would be a different and cool color to paint my 68 and go with white interior, but i havent ever seen any.. If ya'll don't have pics have you ever seen cars painted like that and did they look good?

Thx

Try looking at the cover of the 2004 spring edition of LMC Truck catalog. I think that is the best looking green that I have ever seen. My dad used to have a 1970 truck that was that same color from the factory.

Steven Sellers · 04-05-2004, 09:39 PM

Well mines a metallic green but............every camera in the worlds flash turns it blue in pics. If I shine a flashlight or picture it it still comes out blue so unless you wanna pay me a visit then youll just have to believe its green....P.S. ask Big O he can attest that it is in fact green.

Steven Sellers · 04-05-2004, 09:42 PM

Hmm it just came to me maybe Ill try turning the flash off and shoot it tomorrow....DOH

laxplaya37 · 04-05-2004, 09:56 PM

lol I was wandering y u couldnt just do that.. Id appreciate it if you don't mind though I'd like to get an idea how it looks. thx

bagged78 · 04-05-2004, 11:25 PM

metallic, but no candy....

Perchjerker · 04-05-2004, 11:34 PM

OMG Bagged, that is the best green i've ever seen. Mine is the same color, but the factory paint has oxidized and looks dull now. That's 505 dark green, right?

bagged78 · 04-05-2004, 11:43 PM

Not sure on the color, I just know it's factory 2000 Isuzu rodeo color...
That is baggedblaz' 2wd, if you want more info PM him and he would be happy to help..

another pic..

bagged78 · 04-05-2004, 11:44 PM

That looks the same color as my truck. It should be Forest Green.

boilrman · 04-06-2004, 05:16 PM

Here is the color mine is gonna be. Hopefully in a month or so.

*67Fleetsidedream* · 04-06-2004, 05:42 PM

Love that dark green!!!!!

laxplaya37 · 04-06-2004, 07:17 PM

boilerman thats a sweet color, did you pay someone or paint it yourself and if you did yourself ( I think I remember reading something about it that you did) how hard was it? And what color is it?

pound41 · 04-06-2004, 08:39 PM

Fined a picture of a 69 Camaro (Rallye Green) Nice and different

Steven Sellers · 04-09-2004, 11:29 PM

Well I tried it without the flash and its still blue in the pic but believe it or not it is close to the color of my garage door in the first pic, not quite but close enough you get the idea

**passthebuck** · 04-10-2004, 12:29 AM

I cant remember where I borowed this pic from BUT the green on this truck does it for me. My green 67 will be similar in colour one day...

Glen · 04-10-2004, 12:38 AM

I like green too...this is mine.

baggedblaz · 04-10-2004, 05:07 PM

damn my bro is quick! oh well i dont have to post the pic.. LOL
boiler that color looks like the honda del sol color.. my color is called garden green mica has two different pearls and a metalic and it is off a 2000-2001 isuzu rodeo..kinda resembles the factory dk green or olive.. Thanks for the colmpliments on my blaze guys..

@ baggedblaz:

I absolutely fell in love with that green. It doesn´t look exactly like the isuzu rodeo garden green mica... so what metallic and pearls did you add??? I saw somehwere that you mentioned a silver metallic... did you add that or is that in the OEM color? Do you have any paint code or exact mixture data on the color you used? I would really appreciate that, cause I want my truck to be the exact same color!

Thanks, hope to hear from you!
