Ok, this is probably yet again a dumb question, but did GM change this color at all through its use in the 60's? I am getting ready to order some Pro-Spray in this color, but just wanna make sure I get the correct yellow.
 
According to the Pro-Spray database they list that color from 1965-1971. To my knowledge the color didn't change.
 
Ok, thats all i needed to know! Thanks. Now I just need to find an off-white to go with it.
 
May want to look at wimbeldon white as an accent color. I think it would look pretty good with the butternut yellow, but may be a bit sacreligious :)

Arctic beige or Adobe beige. Used on grills, bumpers headlight trim rings for Chevy pick-ups of the 50's
 
Got the cab back from the metal shop. Finished the bodywork and today the cab recieved some color.









 
Wow - Looks beautiful! Very nice work. I swear these old pick ups have nothing on the new ones. Simple lines - but so much class. Going to get me an old pick up as soon as I move down south. Question - I saw the Norton Liquidice in the background - is it good? I do more detailing than anything lately - never tried it.

Thanks guys, not too shabby for being painted in my shack! I like the Norton Liquidice. I've never tried anything other than 3m, and frankly im tired of the 3m prices. I recently switched to Meguires105 compound and i really like that also.
 
I'm going to grab a bottle and try it. May have phrased my post wrong - the new pick ups have nothin on the old ones.. you know what I mean ;). Look at that dash - no cheap plastic there..
 
Thank you very much. Everything is SPI clear except for the tailgate. I have been battling with SPI clears for a little while now with runs and sags. The first time I painted the tailgate on my first pass it just ran down on all the letters..... so I had to re-sand and I used a different brand on that. I used to never have any issues, but lately I just cant win with production or UV. Oh well, I will figure it out.
 
It's probably something as simple as a gauge that has gradually lost calibration. I'd be willing to bet that all you need is more air pressure.
