Soon I'll be making her as new as possible cleaning up the surface rust, fixing a few dings, and I can't decide what color/s to paint her? Any ideas or photos would be appreciated!! I'll be switching to chrome steel wheels(15in) and 2.5in white wall radials soon. Plus it will be lowered 4in front and 3.5inches in the rear, going for a custom 50's look. Clean, cool, cruiser.

[img]http://mars.ark.com/~red58/thumbs/t_58park.jpg[/img] the turquoise and ivory is nice too whatever you choose, if ya do a two tone, the factory pattern looks best, IMO - see the whole thing here Bill | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 60 Member | | Member Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 60 | No monsoon's yet, they're in july-oct, we yanked a 350 out of my buddies impala and that was the clean-up from some slight spillage.
Thanks for the cool color chip chart. I like a bunch but the ivory and white or maybe turquoise make cool lookin' 50's colors.
Obviously my "Shi*t brown" wasn't an option in '59 but underneath the tan color my truck is almost school bus yellow, then primer.
When the time comes.... tough choice!!
