Painting roof white

Guys,
I recently started trimming out the cab, well the firewall and fenders anyway. I have decided to paint the roof white. Where does the white break on the back of the cab below the rear glass and where on the doors and in the door jams? Anywhere else I need to know about?

Thanks,
Danny

Re: Painting roof white

Did it vary depending on the year? Here is what my 67 looks like.

Yeah. I believe 67 and 68 do not have the white door uppers and the windshield frame, like the 69+ trucks do

Re: Painting roof white

Good info...I am thinking about a white roof too, looks like my 72 may have a 67-68 paint scheme.

Re: Painting roof white

IIRC on my 69, the cab was masked behind where the weatherstrip attaches for the doors as well as the windshield, and only the exterior part of the door's window frames where white.

Re: Painting roof white

I have a set of the belt molding in good shape for the back of the back of the cab if you need it.
