Both color splits are too low. The lower one should be approximately across the lower third of the fuel filler door, and the upper one should be about level with the bottom of the 'dumbo' mirror mount. These are random google photos of 1981 trucks that look stock. The single headlight truck has the ZY4 paint, and the dual headlight truck has the ZY5 paint. (note that there's no specific relationship between the single/dual headlights and the paint pattern)

The dual headlight truck has the 'dumbo' mirrors I'm referring to.
