A picture of a 2-tone bed fron panel off truck?

If anyone has a picture of a 2 tone ( with centerband ) bed off the truck, I would like to give one to the body shop so they get the paint correct.
Anyone????
Thanks for any help!
Tim

If I understand what you're asking, the front bed panel doesn't have both colors on it like the bedsides do, just the primary color.

Actually mine does and fortunately it is still on the cab as an example but the bed I sent to the blaster and was so happy to get it there I forgot to snap a few pictures. Der!
The centerband color ( In my case with the current project, WHITE ) continues in from the bedsides and wraps around to a point where it is hard to see it end ( About 6" on both the cab and the bed ) when bed and cab are together.
I know all the plants tended to do things a bit different but this is the third truck out of the St. Louis plant that I have done with a centerband and they all were the same way, wrapped around so you couldnt see the center paint end between the cab and bed.
These two colors are a bit hard to differentiate but if you look hard you can see that the white centerband on this truck I had last year wraps around to a point where you cant really see it end on the front of the bed.
Thanks,
Tim

Here's the only pic I can find of my old halfhorn. Either a 71 or 72 longhorn (can't remember) it was a 307/Th350 3/4 ton Cheyenne longhorn.

The chalk lettering said Z84
