Paint Scheme

Alright guys, i am torn. I cant find any images on google images to give you guys an idea of what i want, but my truk is a sea-foam green color i think they call it, anyways, i'm not sure if i want to do black outside with a dark blue interior with a black bench seat and blue stitching/piping on the seat, or or or, like a canary yellow outside, black interior with black stitching/piping on my bench seat, i think if i go with the yellow and black ill do black powdercoated rims, anyways what im asking is your opinions and if you have any pics of either of these paints, on a dentside itd be much appreciated!

Not a fan of the racing stripes. Maybe a two tone with the hood and roof being black.

Here is a pretty cool scheme. Just put blue in the dent like you where talking about. This one is rhino lined inside and out (just the floors are rhino lined) and the interior follows the out side colors too.

Oh i do like thatt, only reason i am leaning towards the racing stripes, is because i plan on lowering it a little bit, and making it a street rodd, and racing stripes just go hand in hand, but im starting to dig the black with blue stripe down the side, or yellow with the black stripee

The Sea foam is ugly I'v had 3, I have one picture of my 77 (sold long ago)with Grabber yellow with the dent with the stainless (not painted) and hood painted black but its a REAL picture so I'll look to see if I can find it and scan it in,It was bitchen Cannery yellow is way to bright. IMO

Yea I would put the stripe down the side (in the "dent") even if i was going to slam one. I'm either going to do black with blue in the dent or the factory 2 tone in black and blue.
