Anyone have pics of ochre colored trucks? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

lukecp · 06-15-2002, 10:35 PM

I started doing bodywork on my truck the other day on impulse (i had to get rid of some cracking bondo), and when i am done (if ever), i would like to get it painted. It is Ochre right now, with the top of the cab being white. It is the original paint scheme, but not the original paint. It has full trim, so i could paint it 2-tone pretty easily with the white stripe in the middle. Does anyone have a pic of a two-tone ochre truck, or one with the white top, but only the top trim on it? As you can see, my truck looks pretty good right now, but the only really good body panels on it are 1 bedside, the hood, and 1 fender, and the passenger side door. Eveything else needs some welding to get it nice

It's not two-tone but just another original paint scheme to look at

I'm thinking the ochre with the white top, and stripe looks pretty good, especially on that SWB in the link

. Whenever i get it painted...i think i will get that scheme, unless it costs a lot more money. Thanks for the pics

I have a question for Solver or anyone who can answer me this..... what is that chrome door on the side of your bed? I see that on the pic you posted of your daily driver and i have no clue what this is?

I have one also, it's a gas filler door for my third tank.

colohusker · 06-17-2002, 01:41 AM

Mine is the same paint scheme as yours right now. I'm also thinking of going 2-tone with white in the middle, so if that's what you do, send me a pic! To see mine, just follow the link at the bottom....

Well mine is my "avatar". I don't know how to post pics with the new board software so you can go to http://nickrod.port5.com to look at it. I think you have already seen my truck anyhow though in our many IM conversations.

**Joesjunk** · 06-17-2002, 02:00 PM

Here is a pic of my 61k original mile ochre truck. I wish it was two tone, but it was not ordered that was. That is the original paint. I have not posted pic on the new board yet so lets see if this works.
