Re: Calling All Two-Tones
Wow, cutting the frame rails in half. To me, that is really taking it to the next level. I have heard of people doing this, but never seen one. Thanks for explaining how it was done. Now here is a Two-Tone 1960 GMC that is in black and white. Question. After years of looking at these old pictures, and knowing the limited factory color choices for any given year, can anyone discern the true color of the trucks in the black and white pictures? With todays computers, it would be easy to add the color, if I knew which color to add. I have even thought of getting pictures of a truck in each color offered that year, and turning it black and white. Perhaps the colors have something to say, even in black and white pictures. Any ideas? GM

Re: Calling All Two-Tones
I wish I could get a clear view of the front tag on that factory picture. It looks like the old script "GMC" with some other text. I wonder if GMC would sell me a Tiff image of that picture. I have that picture, but I pulled it from a copy online. It is not clear enough. The black and white picture I posted is taken from the 1960 GMC Paint Regulations. It is hard to tell from the angle, but the black and white truck picture looks like a short bed to me. GM.

Re: Calling All Two-Tones
Jake Groby's project. Should be on the road in a few months. He went with Canyon Blue for the main body color. Gonna be another fine looking Two-Tone on the road real soon. GM

Re: Calling All Two-Tones
You meet the nicest people riding in a 1960 GMC. These pictures are from a 1980's movie. There is a long list of GMC trucks in movies online. GM

Re: Calling All Two-Tones
SuWeet GMCCollector,
Love them Two-Tones. Did the Mesa Tan 1/2 ton truck get different spear up front right, or is the original just flattened out? Also, is the inside of the bed all White and are the fender wells also White, or Black? If you have one, please consider adding a shot of the bed floor area. I had to wing it on paint placement inside the bed, when I painted my truck. You have a nice pair of awesome looking GMC trucks. There cousins look nice too. I got a soft spot for the 60-61 GMC trucks. Thanks for posting them, GM Last edited by 1960HDGMC; June 26th, 2015 at 06:35 PM. |
