Calling all 67-68 green truck owners!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BarryB · 11-11-2008, 11:54 PM

I have been debating on which color to get to paint my truck. I have seen several 69 up truck on here that are green. But haven't seen any 67- 68's that I can recall. So if you have pictures please post them up. I am really interested in the medium metallic green. like C10-Drivers ride. Hope you don't mind me using your pic for an example?

Oh man, is that color dupont's "iced green dream?" I have a sample of that stuck on my fridge-the color I hope to do my '67 in one of these years...

Heres my 68 in 1970 medium olive green. Should have her on the road by march.

chevykevy · 11-12-2008, 12:39 AM

Sorry guys. I'm having trouble uploading. I'll keep trying

drivethechevy · 11-12-2008, 12:47 AM

this is a picture of my dads truck back in 92 less then a year after he finished the frame-off, i love the medium olive and white combo, imo the greatest 2-tone paint combo ever to come factory

sorry for the quality of the picture, but it is a picture of a picture ad its the best i could do
this is the truck that got me into 67-72

No problem... It's a compliment as far as I'm concerned. I hope you find some examples... I would like to see that color on a 67-68 myself.

No, it's actually a "stock" color from the R/M Diamont color chart. It took a few picks to get this one (there is about 1000 samples on their board) but I'm real happy with the end result.

C10 - We need to see some interior pics of this beautiful green truck.

Willys47 · 11-12-2008, 10:56 PM

this is what mine looked like

BarryB · 11-14-2008, 10:58 PM

These years 67 -68 trucks must be pretty rare in green.

67_C-30 · 11-15-2008, 12:20 AM

Here's the only green 67-68's I have on file.

67_C-30 · 11-15-2008, 12:22 AM

BTW, I don't think Tim Christian's truck (4th pic) is green, but if you kinda sorta squint a little, it almost looks greenish in this pic.

67_C-30 · 11-15-2008, 12:26 AM

Ok, I lied, I found a few more. But they mostly all the same color!

*chevy29267truck* · 11-15-2008, 02:07 AM

Nice looking green trucks my is not green

67shortie · 11-15-2008, 02:51 AM

Mine is green, but not a factory color

**special-K** · 11-15-2008, 09:06 AM

Tim`s truck is a mint green.Just not an original truck color.
For fun:

desertrat · 11-15-2008, 10:42 AM

I never realized it before but it looks like there was only two shade of greens offered in 67-68.

This is from http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/

**Boog** · 11-15-2008, 10:52 AM

This must be only a partial list. There are two shades of green shown but no gold. But it does say "see printed list for special equipment colors".

OK that makes more sense. According to this you can add medium green poly and dark green poly to the list

and here is the two gold colors that were added in '68
