Multi-Color Paint Cut Lines

My formerly white/ochre/white/ochre 1971 C10 short bed was painted all black by some PO. I am going to return the truck to its original color configuration.

The paint cut lines along the sides are pretty straightforward but I want to make sure that I am getting it right everywhere else (roof, doors, back of cab and front of bed, headlight area, etc.) Can anyone point me to a build thread that has detailed pictures of a factory-faithful four-zone paint job, inside and out?

Check out DeadheadNM's '70 K20 build. His builds are accurate in every detail.
Not sure if it shows the paint lines your talking about.

Re: Multi-Color Paint Cut Lines

Also - I can’t speak with confidence regarding 67-72, but for the Square body trucks the secondary color was applied first, the paint style was masked, and then the primary color sprayed over the top of that.
