My internal project clock was ticking, time to get something done. I decided on a deep blue and started making the rounds to the car lots. Selecting the actual color from a paint chip is risky business; they are just too small to get the full impact of the color. The best way to insure you have the right one is to see it on another vehicle. I made many new friends at the dealers, all the sales people suggested that I just buy a car with the color I liked – they were just looking out for my best interest. I picked a hot color – Blue Topaz Metallic. See the pictures and the rest of the story at my blog: http://1954chevytruckevconversion.blogspot.com/ Brimmer | | | | | Joined: Jan 2012 Posts: 16 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2012 Posts: 16 | I like that color really has depth I bet it looks even better in person! | | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 35 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 35 | Thanks.
