Title: wutta u think?
Post by: 75 C20 on June 20, 2007, 09:24:08 pm
as may know i bought a 79 c20 longbed awhile back. i was lookin through ebay and found this-  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet-Silverado-1500-NONE-NICER-1979-Silverado-ALL-ORIGINAL-RARE-SHORT-BED-LQQK_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ13487QQihZ020QQitemZ300121825499QQrdZ1 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet-Silverado-1500-NONE-NICER-1979-Silverado-ALL-ORIGINAL-RARE-SHORT-BED-LQQK_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ13487QQihZ020QQitemZ300121825499QQrdZ1)

and i was wondering what u guys think that paint scheme would look like on my truck- i dont know if it would look as good on a long bed..and dont really wanna do a short bed conversion but..... if i do this color i wont have to mess with the inside color since its already that color
its more red that what it looks in the pics- i waxed it and that brought the cardnial red out ;)
i dont have much for pics on my 79 but heres a couple i have

I personally think it would look better on a long bed than a short bed.

It would look fine on a long or short bed.  It is the factory 2 tone paint scheme.
