Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

nice pics guys! i am looking for two tone pics of short steps.i am building a race truck short step and trying to come up with a paint scheme instead of one solid color.

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

What color is that? It looks like the cinnamon color that they used on some of my favorite Chevy Nomads.

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

That is one nice truck you have there ;)

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

mine...

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

anyone ever done two tone with flat and gloss black
i was thinking of doing a gloss black on the bottom and satin black on the top
anyone know if this has been done?
any pics?
thanks

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

there were some comments on the hamb sometime this week about that kind of style, some looked pretty cool, I think I would do the top 1/2 of the truck gloss, and the bottom flat, it would play with the shadows better?

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

thanks ill go to the hamb and see if i can dig some post up

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

Here is my 1960 Burb with original 2-tone. It is currently being repainted to factory colors except the top will be white. The dark green in Arizona is just too rough.

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

In the past some one posted a picture on this site of a 55-57 chevy step side with a silver over black paint job. If you know of this truck could you please post it.
Thank you

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

Sweet ride gotta love the long bed !!!;)

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

Saw this one on ebay today http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevr...5fTrucks#v4-37

Interesting two tone ...

Notice how across the back of the cab there is a white pinstripe, the doors are body color, but the a pillars are white and the cowl is body color.

Sounds goofy, but I think the look works, IMO.

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

bumping this thread back up...

I'm not sure if I want to keep it this way or if I want to do the traditional two tone. I kinda like this one...but I also do like the traditional one too....decisions decisions. And that's just 1 coat of white gloss tractor paint. It needs some touchups but it's not all that bad really. The window gaskets are getting replaced, and the rest of the truck will eventually be painted blue. I wasn't all that percise with my masking. Here's what it looked like in primer.

So what do you guys think? Keep it like it is or do the traditional thing?


....and lakeroadster...isn't that white pinstripe you're talking about in that last photo really just a chrome trim piece between the custom cab sail panels?

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

Any pics of the traditional 2-tone (roof, top of door, window post), but instead of white, using black?
This truck is the closest I found in this thread

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

Hmmm.... might be a chrome strip, similar to the way they did the '60's. In either case, I like it. To me a paint line needs a pinstripe beside it to finish it off unless the paint line terminates at a major body line.

That is why I like the non-stock two tone that breaks at the rear pillar and is not on the doors or the front post. Especially with the custom cab sail panels.

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

I'm getting close to a two tone paint job....

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

A few, but also on the hood too.

The entire "reason", if you will, for the white cab is to keep the in-cab temperatures cool, like a white roof on a school bus. Black kind of flies in the face of that. Probably why you don't see many like that.:thumbs:

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

Thanks for the reply. I figured that's why probably at least all the original 2-tones had their roof white. I like the two tones you attached, but I left my Custom trim on. Guess I could 2-tone from there up.
Thought just the 2-tone with the roof, top of door, and the posts would look pretty cool....I mean pretty hot. Yea, I guess 'hot' especially down here in FL

Re: two tone paint picture thread
 

This one is really starting to grow on me (especially the louvered hood!).

Two tone white with blue that is (post #91).
