what is the correct way to paint the a pillars and doors?
I believe the a pillars should be white on a 1969 C20, as well as the top of the cab, and the top of the doors. Am I right, or were there different schemes?
Thanks, Scott |

Correct. Doors and A-pillars weren't body color on two-tones until square bodies came along.

From bottom of window-up on doors on 68-72, except some early '68s were like '67... above drip rail only.

Re: what is the correct way to paint the a pillars and doors?
Special K,
I just want to make sure I am reading your post correctly, The door window frame would be white on the outside and INSIDE the cab as well? I guess that wasn't my impression. Am I mistaken or did I misunderstand what you posted? I am getting ready to turn my 68 in a two tone, and I probably need to know. |

Re: what is the correct way to paint the a pillars and doors?
This pic is not that good but the door frame is not white on the inside. I've seen factory paint different ways though.

Re: what is the correct way to paint the a pillars and doors?
MY-T-FINE! Been wondering about you, Jason, and that highly respectable fine example of '72 truck history that fell into the right hands.
Sorry I wasn't clear, wd 69. I posted hastily. I edited my post and you have it right before your eyes now. Clear is becoming a hit or miss thing with me these days

Re: what is the correct way to paint the a pillars and doors?
I painted thos one. So its done correctly.
I lost the truck during the divorce because the ex wifes dad bought it new. I couldnt fight to keep it because of it being his but i had some time and money in it. My son has it now tho. To clarify, he passed away in 2000. |

 Jason, that's such a shame you got disconnected from your truck. Divorce can sure suck, or so I hear (<sarcasm)
