project 62 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So after working out a deal a year or so back on a 62 and starting/stopping on it I am ready to get this thing going. So I have already bolted a p/s p/b '87 front clip and a '87 rear suspension and stripped out everything I no longer need. I also added a 65 grille to it. Now I have to decide if i should paint it or leave it.

I think you should paint it. Go with something like I did a satin paint. I used Hot rod Flatz. Under $150 for the gallon kit. Here is two colors that would look killer. What I like about it is you still have a little of the worn paint look. Hope this helps your decision.
