Anyone have pics of '68 "Ivory" trucks?

Does anyone have a picture of a truck with the '68 Ivory factory paint? I'm looking for both interior and exterior pics. Was that paint option available in both Chevy and GMC trucks in '68? Also what color Interior (s)? was/were standard with that paint?

I'm thinking of doing a light-med grey interior with that exterior paint and want to know what it would look like.

Thanks!

Ivory is probably the same as "Off White". This page should help you.

Yeah, it probably is. My GMC book lists an "Ivory" and no "off-white" and doesn't show a paint code so I can't tell for sure.

Anyone have actual pics?

My burb has the 551 paint code which is the Aniversary Gold with Ivory Top. I think Ivory and Off White are the same.

Come on guys... All these pictures of trucks flying around and no one has an Ivory or Off white one? Even the archive search comes up with only two tones.

Now I have to do it that way.

This is the best I can do. Mine's pure white.

I don't think many off-white 68's were made.

Here's oldiron's '68 flatbed...I still miss that truck! I will post pics of the interior in a bit. It is what I would call a Desert Sand color.
