Re: Cameo White or Ivory?

1960-63 it was known as Cameo White. In 1964 they changed the name to Ivory-Off White. Same color different name.

Not to be confused with White and pure White.

When you optioned a two tone truck, the parts were painted Cameo/ Ivory-Off White depending on the year of manufacture.

A Pure White or White truck is what you would have gotten as in a commercial truck white of today. The hubcaps and other pieces would have been painted with the same tone.

With painted bumpers, grill, hubcaps, tailgate lettering, etc., was the white used the cameo-off white?
