I think a copper color would look awesome, like the one on the Chevelle in my sig from Overhaulin'. Sunset orange metallic is one of my favorites.

Or a blue like 03 SS Arrival Blue would look nice. A two-tone Indigo blue and Pewter looks cool, too. (like Y2KSierra's)

Just my opinion, but i'm not a fan of changing colors. If you have the money and the time then go for it. But if not done right, you will be able to tell it was once another color. I say just do it up in white. I f you do change colors, please just take the time to strip everything off the truck, every weather strip, molding,handles and such. I'm a fan of yellow myself, and no i'm not suggesting that to you, yellow is my color

I agree with Randy about the changing colors bit. Unless you do the interior, engine bay, everything, I dont think it looks right. Go back with a good white but if you want to be different, put a light pearl coat on it like ap2002 suggested. You could also go with white and add some silver or pearl ghost flames.

maybe a two-tone??? I actually like this combination.... I am also wanting to paint my truck next year..... I have been saving this for a while to try and get some estimates on what it'll cost.... the good thing about this combo that the base color is white...
