Hey guys first post here, hope it’s in the right spot. Been wanting to know what color my 65 GMC C10 is. I’m thinking terrace blue, am I correct?

Terrace Blue and Light Green were actually pretty similar. Go to https://6066gmcclub.com/showthread.php?t=48888 and look at the post dated 6-20-15 posted at 1:11 PM. The upper right color chart shows R-M paint chips. Although those two colors are pretty similar, yours appears to be the darker of the two, Terrace Blue.

By the way, your grille is a 1966 only grille. And "C10" is a Chevy model designation. You have a model 1000.

Welcome to the forum!

When my Dad ordered the one ton Suburban I have now, he selected the Terrace Blue color. When he took delivery, he was disappointed to find it had accidentally been painted Light Green at the factory. I think it grew on him, though, because he eventually decided they did him a favor because he ended up liking the lighter color better.
