Not my LUV, my garage walls, I am in process of finishing the fine drywall job the guy I bought the house from did and I want to paint the walls some way really cool. Anybody have any ideas, I cant find crap for pics on the net of other people's garages. Looking for something kind of simple (and cheap). Any body have some suggestions. Please dont say checkerboard!!! :roll: Thats all I have been getting so far. Thanks!!!!

Save a section and have a sort of portrait of the chow. I like larp's idea too. Some of that graffiti is pretty cool...

Do some stripes that match your truck. but then again your going to change that soon, huh?

It might be a little much, but you know that paint and glitter stuff for the floors??? throw that stuff on the walls too.

Battleship Gray with lines of fake rivets?

White with a blue belt, sorta matched to your truck maybe?

Use some of that chalkboard paint and then cover it with a bunch of equations and stuff.

Thanks so far, I like the graffiti and sheet metal ideas but was thinking more of some kind of stripe or color combo type ideas. I am thinking about making the floor look like a highway. As for matching it to my truck, I will also have my 39 and S10 SS in there plus I have no idea of how I am going to repaint the truck. So keep em coming, as for the milk bubbles, well of course those will be going over the paint!!! :twisted:

Even if your LUV ends up another color and you have other rigs in there too, I think your truck's paint scheme would look good on a wall. White above with a knee or waist high blue lower stripe, maybe a pinstripe at the edge between.
