Re: paint ideas
not to mention just doing a google image search for "pickup two tone paint job" or something similar will get you more ideas than you probably want. This was the 3rd pic shown to me doing that search which I think is what you are talking about when you say the 'one color with the cab painted'

I've always liked the "Lunar Green" and "Wimbledon White" for a two tone Ford paint scheme.

Re: paint ideas
Ya Thanks for that photo . I have Google and looked at the members galleries but a lot of what I get is picks of a lot of stock trucks that are the stock colors or lots of trucks that are in what I call the start of rebuild. I was just wondering if anybody had pics of trucks restored with different styles of two tone with different color schemes aka not what big oval said to do or what it came with (which is cool and I like just) I about got all by body work done on my 72 and just don't know what way to go

Re: paint ideas
still hard to beat the original color schemes in my opinion - but I may be a little prejudiced
