Did you want custom paint jobs?The factory two-toned in two levels:Top accent color or top and below beltline moulding.

Looks like this answers the question of if the front grill area gets painted other then body color WITHOUT having the chrome trim going around the nose.

I had been wondering if my '68 paint was factory done. Looks like if you got painted bumpers, you got a silver nose and if you got chrome bumpers and nose trim, you got white paint.

Sure wish mine had the trim.

Here's a pic of my 68. I guess my bumper could have been changed, but the rest of the truck is original to the best of my knowledge. So who knows?

Sorry for the thread hijack!

they look real nice with that bottom trim , but mine does not have it so i have to 2 tone up higher :waah:

I find it interesting that some of the white roof trucks have the front pillars painted white also and others just the roofs are white. I'm assuming all white (including front pillars) is factory, right?

Man,

That black red, silver, or black orange silver is HOT.

Im thinking two tone gloss/matt black with REAL copper trim/fire wall interior, or patina job for my 68

Thee A pillars were body color on 67's only. In 68 the whole top was white.

Thanks for the clarification John. I swore the body colored A pillars were a custom thing and not factory. I really think they nailed it in 67!

Here's a Bump for more pics for the original poster!
