Jeff Balazs Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 Anyone ever see a tan colored Pilothouse? I am thinking about painting my truck a light desert tan color. I know it is not a stock color but I kinda like it and it would be cooler in hot weather than most colors. If anyone has any photos of a tan one I sure would like to see them. Thanks, Jeff Quote
Frank Elder Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 Sorry that it's not a truck , but this is a stock dodge color for 46-48 d-24s. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 Sorry that it's not a truck , but this is a stock dodge color for 46-48 d-24s. Frankie..that's close to the original color of my 41 Dodge big butt...I think mine has tad more of a creamy look to it....lights colors looks good on a large car.. Quote
pflaming Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 Take a look at these. There are a lot of 'tans', the modern tan / black in today's clothing I think would look good. Tan is a good southern CA color cause it reflects heat so well. Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 Wow! That was quick. You guy's are great! I like it. I really didn't want something bright or too dark. Hey and the tan with some black looks kinda stealthy to me. Jeff Quote
Young Ed Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 I wonder how much modification he did to get that 49 ribbed bumper mounted so nicely. I have a set of those for my 40 plymouth pickup. Quote
Frank Elder Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 Paul, is that third picture an "earth" tone...? lol:D Quote
pflaming Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 "earth tone", probably quite correct. It's my 'barn find' or 'original patina' trophy. Got it for Christmas back afew from my son-in-law who found it in a stream bed in Indiana. It still has the key in it!!!!!! You might say it was 'shot at and missed, sh_ _ at and hit!" Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 Paul; That "color" is a little too rustic for even my taste. Wonder if the poor kid that lost it is still out there looking for it? Jeff Quote
HanksB3B Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 I buried my teddy bear under our peach tree half a century ago and still wonder why? I know that explains it, but still wonder... Why? Why? Why? Hank Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 Hank; Explains what? That would make you about twelve ? OMG Jeff Quote
HanksB3B Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) More like 4 or 5 when it happened. Jefff, I try not to be so accurate when it comes to carbon dating myself. Spent this beautiful California weekend shooting down a canyon with my wife on our mountain bikes Saturday and Sunday roadbiking in Palos Verdes. No truck stuff this weekend.

Jeff Balazs Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Posted July 9, 2012 Don't fret anymore Hank........I heard he dug his way out and after years of therapy is living under an assumed identity. Jeff Quote
