Re: Your Pics, please - FORD BLUEs
Mine is a 72 and per the VIN it is a B6 which is the "wind" blue (lighter) and "bahama" blue. I am going to eventually have it repainted the exact colors but only when the budget allows. Good luck and these are some great looking trucks that y'all have posted.

If there is a particular shade of blue you were looking for I could look for specific pictures. And personally my favorite blue out of these has got to be the top one on the two-tone truck.
1st one is Harbour Blue (top) and Wimbledon White (bottom), right? Think I'm getting it now . Can u tell me the paint name for the 3rd one (looks nice) and the 6th/last one is surprisingly nice, TOO! (kind of baby blue-ish). What's it called? Plan on having the cabin roof painted in white, so..'70 Ford F-100 (Project 95%)

Re: Your Pics, please - FORD BLUEs
1st one looks similar to Harbor Blue but I believe it is Winter Blue (I've seen it a lot on 'Stangs) and Wimbledon White. 3rd one looks to be somewhere between a Reef Aqua and Swiss Aqua looking at paint-chips. 6th one seems to be Sky View Blue. Of course all of that is going off of paint-chips online so I'm not 100% certain on color. Here's a link to the paint-chips I used for reference: http://www.fordification.com/library/ma ... ewsIndex=1. Good luck choosing a color Panski! And like I said earlier if you have a particular shade or color of blue you'd like to see I'm sure I can find it saved on my computer somewhere. I should probably be able to find it in a two-tone like you wanted to do toopanski wrote:Casey, thanks for the picsCaseys71 wrote:None of these are my trucks but here are some of my favorite looking blues on F-100s (not all of them are bumps but still F-100s

This is one I had in the seventy's
This is one I found when looking for color idea's for for restoration project.

I am of an age now that most of life's lessons were learned the hard way;
Life is hard, but it’s harder when you’re stupid.
Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear or a fool from any direction.
Never ask how stupid someone is 'cause they'll turn around and show you.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
If you had the choice “Looks or Brains” take the Brains, Looks will get you thru the first half, but Brains will last a lifetime.
