720life Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I had a 81 720 that had a dark blue paint with a metal flake look to it. Not sure but i think it was a factory paint. Cleaned up an extra hood today and its a really nice dark blue with metal flake as well, a very pretty color when fresh and waxed up im sure. Ill try to get some good close-ups of it in the morning to see if I can show you. And as a plus, darker colors are easier to keep clean...er :lol: Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I say stick with the tan. It will still look good. Screw that guy's truck; I noticed it on the way up to your place and I snickered to myself when I saw that he did the wheels the same color(doesn't look good at all in my opinion). If you went ahead and did it, I wouldn't be surprised if he balked and wanted to repaint his "bowtie" the instant he saw some "Chinese POS" driving around the same town, the same color as his pride and joy. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dantheman Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Go with what you like. If yours is done well and his isn't like you said, then they wont look alike any way. Show him how it's supposed to be done. Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Why don't you look at colors people have painted their car/trucks on the internet ..... ... so you can cross off all those colors too.. :rofl: ..... semi-gloss tan or even gloss tan will look so much better than that POS chevy's flat tan,,, no one will even notice 2 Quote Link to comment
