I prefer to call it distressed...haha
We shot a white base color and then a caltrans yellow and then wet sanded all the gloss out so it would be a flat color... Then went deeper in some spots to distress it..... I do a lot of wood working stuff and just used the same techniques..... It's just the way I like it!

Cool, it looks great! Woodworkers call it distressed, car guys call it patina ;) Whatever you call it, I like it!

Very handsome truck and nice wheels and tires! May I ask what tire size are you using? I am repairing my old 67 GMC longbed, I think these could be great for mine. Congrats

This is my 1968 chevy c10. sbc 355. I have had this truck for 4 years. I just put a new cluster gauge in to get rid of the manual choke knob. It was a stepside shortbed. I just put the fleetside on it. It has a 3" 5 " drop.

I love that interior!! What color is your dash pad and seat? I've been searching for the right shades of tan for my build but even after looking at hundreds of pics nothing seemed "right". Until now! I would greatly appreciate any information you would be willing to share.

Thanks,

Danny/a.k.a. Agent915

Man to be honest I'm not sure what the color is called. Ill call my interior guy and find out for ya though. The darker color in the seats, door panels and dash pad are ostrich and the lighter is a faux leather. The colors I based my search off of are bmw seats. I paint at a bmw store so im constantly around them. THANK YOU for the compliments!

Thanks! That would be awesome! My truck is painted a color very similar to the "Sea Foam Green". I believe the colors you used on your interior would compliment the color greatly.

You know how it is when you're in love. I'm afraid I've subjected that girl to a bad case of overexposure here on the Forum, Del.
She probably needs to hide for a while.

My love just turned into full blown lust. That truck is beyond remarkable!!!!
