Re: how about some interesting factory two tone paint pics!

I'm trying to decide on a two tone paint scheme for both my black trucks. I know I want to do the full side stripe, not the one that only comes up to the body line. I would like to eventually do both trucks the same, but my crew has red interior, the Blazer has light gray. So I could do any shade of blue on the Blazer, but not on the crew. Silver or gray is always nice, but I want something a little different and fancy, yet subdued. I'd like to go with maybe a dark purple or black cherry kind of color, something that wouldn't immediately stand out as two tone until the sun hit it.
Anyone know of a site where I could do some color sampling to get an idea what it would look like? Like a photoshop type thing? Thanks

Re: how about some interesting factory two tone paint pics!

My 77 has been painted over but I haven't seen the original paint job on any other truck. The roof and the inner trim area was an off white color and the rest of the truck was a dark red, and of course the yellow striped trim for 77.

Re: how about some interesting factory two tone paint pics!

Does anyone have any pictures of a red over copper center truck. Essentially the top color of mine in the center and red where the top color was. Thanks in advance.
