Re: Paint color website

I didn't realize there were 2 different shades of white used on the 64. I read somewhere on here that the white was used if the truck was all white and the ivory was used if the truck was 2 toned.

Yeah, my original RPO paint color code was 521 - white.

I'm changing it to 2 tone with body side molding. white & light gray, 521 & 522. This '65 is nowhere near original enough to make it a complete restoration IMHO.

So your truck was originally all white? I don't think I've ever seen one. Thats cool.
