white roof question?

So I think that i am seeing a trend with the 67/68 trucks so im just gunna ask...
Is the "white cab roof only" a 67 only thing and the 68's came with the top of the door frames and windshield frames white as well as the roof?

Re: white roof question?

Mostly correct. But I can't say for a fact because my 69 orginally came from the factory that way till I had it repainted. I don't know why it did. I bought it from the 1st owner in 79 and it hadn't been painted. I disliked not having the upper door white and changed it. My 69 was a custom ordered turquose/ white maybe thats why, they got lazy.. I haven't seen any except mine that rolled out of the factory like that though except 67's.

Re: white roof question?

Yes in 67 the white was only applied to the roof, it did not extend down the "a" pillar or onto the door frames- the actual roof only got white. If you search member John Fabris I think his truck is painted in the correct scheme with white only on the roof.
