Title: I am trying to decide on a new paintjob for my truck.
Post by: Hydro on June 18, 2011, 04:12:16 AM
So I went and picked up my truck from the shop yesterday. Got most of the major problems (worn out bearings in the transmission, bad differential, various nonfunctional dials and gauges including the speedometer) taken care of. Got home and looked at the paint (well, what's left of it) and decided that it could use a new scheme.

What do you think, should I make it look like A: The new Greyhound buses (dark blue with chrome); B: An old Soviet military truck (olive drab with a red star); or C: Red, black and green camoflauge with corrigated metal siding bolted on?

By the way, it's a 1986 Dodge Ram. I'll post pics if I can remember to get some.


Edit: Feel free to suggest other schemes.

Don't be a twit, just get a normal color.

When you get an expensive sportscar then you can start getting flashy paint.

Why waste pain on a Dodge?......it would be WORSE than painting a dog turd!




But if you must waste paint, go back factory color, so door jambs and such will all match.

I agree. Weird paintjobs don't make you cool.

LNER Apple Green might be nice, with the number (1917) written on the door, and LNER written on the back  :3
