Does anyone want to help make this truck two-tone?

hey folks, my truck has been in the bodyshop most the winter, but the time for paint is getting really close. My bodyman put the bug in my ear that it would look good two tone, and now I'm doing a last minute attempt to make it happen! I'm not interested in a two tone split down the bodyline. The only way I want it is if I can get my hands on some racetrack trim, buttttttttt I can't afford the fancy dennis carpenter stuff (if it was even in stock).

I guess I'm asking if anyone has a complete racetrack trim set sitting in their shed that isn't dented and kinked that they'd be willing to sell and ship to me??

(here's the most recent picture I've gotten)


Please guys, help me make this truck awesome!

If you want to bring it down to southwest Missouri, I can help you out. I have a hotrod shop that specializes in dents. We have everything you need down here,. Parts, materials, equipment, etc. All ya' need to do is get it here.

I've got most of the trim from my 75 CS, have it all actually but I know theres a piece or 2 that needs small repairs or rust removal. The bad news is that I'm in Calgary, can still check tomorrow to see if I have the race track completely. Have the lower pieces and the damage may be on them.

I have a better idea, how about a trained professional such as yourself remove the parts (unharmed) I need and ship them to northeast ohio so another dent can look gorgeous

Long bed or short. I have a full set of lower race track for the short bed boxed and ready to go. Pretty good shape. I'd say and 8 out of 10. I sprung for the new parts in my continuing search for Nivarna.

Original are on the truck in my gallery.

Better have your body guy ready to add "mount rivets" or what ever they are called and then you get all new mount brackets for inside the trim....

You know you can go with a easier route of "painted on race trac"? Or here is a all black option that is interesting IMO.
