Hi there,

We have a rampside that needs to have a restoration on the interior and exterior paint. Just wondering if other Rampside owners could share their pics of completed restorations? I'm interested in both traditional and non-traditional schemes. (Scandalous!)

Cheers,
OCGal

I was just thumbing through the current issue of Super Chevy magazine, and there's a picture of a red rampy with white coves at a show in Arizona. I have to say it's a pretty fetching color on a rampside.

My neighbor has a 64 rampy with the Goldwood Yellow with White that just looks Sweeeeeeet..

Around these parts red with a white cove tho fetching is way too common. I had a 62 Loadside in the late 80's. I painted it midnight blue metallic with a lightish blue metallic in the insets , outlined with a grey metallic pinstripe. Very nice uncommon, and eye catching. I carried the 2-tone paint thru the interior as well, and used a simple piped dark and light uphosltery (Dark vinyl lower and Powderblue insert) on the stock bench

i always thought black with silver coves would look nice on the exterior. then black seats, door panels, and carpet with silver dash and doors inside.

you could aslo go 2 tone black/silver on the steering wheel and black colum.

Black and silver rocks as well, painted one like that for a bud in the 80's.

Black w/ copper metallic coves .

Go checkout your local Harley dealership, about the only place left doing 2 tones, and lots of nice modern combos.

My RS is going to be Harley '04 Luxury Teal w/ antique white stripe and red accents.
