Two tone color options

Been thinking of some color options for my 78 short bed. I really want a two tone paint job, and i am gonna put on the race track moldings. Been kinda thinking of a champaigne metallic top and bottom with black in the middle, or a copper metallic or something similiar in shade and black in the middle. Any pics or suggestions?

I'm kinda partial to the Ivy Glow/Wimbledon white combo two tone, and have been since the day dad brought it home back in 74. I thought it was the purtiest truck I'd ever seen, and that opinion hasn't changed.
When it's all cleaned up and polished, it's beautiful.

This series truck is like a classy woman. Good lines looks good in any color. Dark blue and silver has always been my favorite.

I am painting mine synergy green (new Camaro color) from the dent up and black from the dent down. I don't have the race track trim.

Thanks guys, kinda narrowed it down to blue and silver. I like the black sapphire pearl color found on the newer lexus cars. Its a dark midlight blue. Now to put the blue on the top and bottom, and the silver in the middle, or the other way around? Either way, i know it will look sweet. Just finalizing the body work, and hope to get into paint by mid summer. Will post pics when painted. Thanks again for everyone's input.
