Agreed 100%. The only color scheme that really works for the 60 series is bright purple with gold chrome trim and wheels. extra points for windshield banner that reads "One Love"

Didn't see many votes for bown....but I like it and the light beige.
This is my favorite stock color.
LOVE this rig!!!!Hi all - funny thing - car colors! I have had 2 HJ45 truck in freeborn red and was looking to find a HJ61. Guess what! It all ended with a freeborn red and decal and I starting to find it very appealing

I’ve always gone with Green. Mine is Ford Black Jade, perfect colour to me. I’ll be painting the
BJ74 same, and I painted my Tundra dark Green as well.

That is a beautiful truck! I can think of two environments where it will blend in -- the arctic tundra in autumn turning bright red, and next to a volcano full of lava.Hi all - funny thing - car colors!

Make PSILOCYBIN legal for TBI/PTSD/TRA&D
This is my 3rd round at deciding on the repaint color. The first two were 'that's the color I want' until sprayed on panels. The 3rd round, which was the color I expected to be my last pick, hit all the right buttons. Dark emerald frost ftw - definitely worth the added $$ and as usual, the picture doesn't do the color justice.
Go on, take it outside and retake.
You going with the satin/matte finish?
I'd love a satin on my charcoal gray....although after 32 years it's going through a natural self-satining process.

Yes, matte is the plan and after seeing it on the cadillac first, I was stoked it looked the same on the 60.You going with the satin/matte finish?

@cruiserpilot - will be putting some time on her this week and will grab a few shots in different light for u.
I had always wanted the Dark Metallic Grey but had to settle for only half that color.
I couldn’t bring myself to spend $$$$ on a paint job just to scratch it up, so I wrapped it instead. When I get bored with it , I will just do a different wrap. It is definitely a conversation starter wherever I go
