Black with white top

Does anybody have a squarebody truck painted all black with a white top. Like shaun23allen's red with a white top paint scheme? Any opinions on whether it would look good.

Re: Black with white top

Looks pretty good to me, but then again I might be biased...

Re: Black with white top

Try adding the white in the middle of the sides as well as the top where it is now.

Re: Black with white top

My uncle used to have a 78 K20 that was two tone black with a white top, and had the white stripe down the side. I really didn't care for it that much myself. I thought it would have looked a lot better with silver or red as the accent color, but that's just me. ...Joe

Re: Black with white top

I like it. Then you could throw some blue and red led flashers in the grill and scare the crap out of your friends (and only your friends)!!!

I have been considering this myself on my blue truck due to some paint imperfections on the roof. But here in "Les Schwab country" it would look like a service truck with bling bling wheels.
