anyone got 56 - 59 two tone paintjob pictures?

Tried search the forum for the last 30 minutes and havent been able to find exactly what I'm looking for. Going cross eyed now.

Hopefully the truck will be going out for new paint in the next month or so and I'm looking for some 56 - 59 two tone paint job pictures for reference/inspiration/obsession material if anyone has anything it would be much appreciated!

Where my head is at currently: satin gun metal dark grey body with a white cab, (white down to just the edge of the window, not on the door or body)

Thanks!

Mine's not done yet, but after agonizing for months, here's where I went. They are basic 55 colors, 2 tone on cars, 1 on trucks.

Here is what I could find when I was researching paint jobs. Two are later models. I also have a few AD's if you want to see those.

Whew, that '59 Fleet is phenominal. Thanks for sharing that.

Ok Ray, I'm shocked no one has asked yet...what's the deal with the Antichrist license plate number? Did you actually PICK that? I'm surprised the State would actually issue it. Aren'tyou running the risk of someone religious screwing with your truck?
