Re: Post your short step side pics
My late pop's 1969 C10 stepside, I'm going to be finishing it in his absence...the color originated from a calendar he had in his shop on what I think was a custom 40's coupe (see upper left on photo). I'm not sure of the actual color mix but I'm pretty sure it's a PPG Dreamcicle.
The '69 was originally olive green and when my Dad bought it, it was a metallic maroon. I've always liked the olive green, especially when two-tone with white.
Personally, if I were to start from scratch, I'd do a variation of white, tan or gray, even silver possibly. You can't go wrong with the clean basic lighter tones.
