Hey guys,
I've been searching for pictures of a 1947-53 Chevy or GMC truck that has been painted two tones. Only the upper part of the cab from where the stripe line usually is to the roof. I saw a blue body and white roof member pic but cannot find it for the life of me. Does anyone have a link to an A.D. truck painted like that? I've been considering painting mine like that but would like to see some other examples. Thanks for your time guys. Wada

Wada,

Check the Gallery for two-tone 47-53 two-tone exteriors (you probably have done this already).

In 1954, there were factory option two-tone exteriors (several combinations). Some photos are linked below - use your imagination regarding/ignoring the grill.

1954 two-tone cabs and panels

1954 green/white cab

A few other 1954 two-tone combinations.

Some pictures show the lower color going to the bottom of the body-belt, while other pictures show the lower color going to the top of the body belt. I think the lower color went to trhe bottom of the body belt (and the other artist might have been wrong). However, do what suits your tastes.

Thanks Tim,
somehow I knew you'd have the answer for me. Thanks for the picture links, that was what I was looking for. Wada
