Two Tone Paint 76 gmc crew cab

[Goggles Pisano]

okay need some direction. Getting ready to start the body work. Truck is a factory two tone. Oxblood and tan. Im trying to figure out what is painted the main color (oxblood) and the secondary color (tan). I found the original tan color on the firewall and dash and some remnants of oxblood on the hood/ fenders. So what color would the door jams be?Tan? Then the doors would be painted in oxblood? Any information would be appreciated or pictures of some trucks with two tone. thanks.

I made a mistake and accidently placed this topic in the introduction forum, so placing in correct area. thanks.

here is a pic of the beast

Can't really tell much from that pic.

Do you know which RPO two tone you have? There were several different versions.

If the "main color" is oxblood, then that would be the "primary" color. All of the interior (dash, ceiling, inside of the doors) would be painted in that primary color.

Also - in the factory the secondary color was sprayed first, then taped off and the primary color sprayed over that. That could be throwing you off a bit.

So do you think that the primary color is the Tan?

Yes, The option is 60L and tan is the first number, which means you have tan as the primary color and the dark Rosedale red as the secondary color. You should also have custom red cloth bench seats. Page 13 in the GM heritage vehicle information kit that is linked above shows the options.

ZY3 means you will have Primary tan all over(including interior surfaces) and Secondary red just on the side stripe between the trim. If you had ZY4, the roof would also be red in addition to the stripe.
