Not a true statement. My '68 C/10 Stepside has a white nose and white front bumper. It is a Solid [516 Orange] not a two-tone.
I am pretty sure it's all Fremont Original as I have not messed with it [bodywork-wise] and I bought it in 1973. Neither of the POs messed with it either, as it was a work truck and they were busy.
Fawn on interior: dash panel edges, steering column and door panels was Factory.
Funny how these "Rules" pop up on the Internet, 50 years after the fact.
