Color scheme

I have a 1979 crewcab f250 XLT. I had thoughts of adding some lower race track molding to turn the truck into a two tone. I have an original dark ivy green paint job on a 65 mustang and would like to incorporate the same green into the truck with a pearl white. does anyone know of a program that has, or will let me upload a picture of the truck and play with color schemes so I can find one that I will be happy with. Thanks for your help in advance.

Sure put it on here (a nice large side profile shot) and I can mess with it. Or just open it yourself with "paint" program and have fun. It is not a precise as some high speed photo shop programs, but I can try to get you in the visual ball park.

You don't have to add the lower race track trim to two tone it, although some think it does a nicer job of breaking it up.


Its not Ivy Green, but this is my '75 with factory combination two tone (no race track trim). The green is "Hatteras Green" per the '75 literature.
