I'm looking for examples of the two tone white roof option. Thinking of painting my 65 in red with a white roof and wondering what the factory did with the door jambs and interior in those trucks.

 

Here's the "Regular Tu-Tone" paint job on my 1966 F250 4x4 at this link. This is my red/white truck so I can give you any details you'd like about the dash paint and door jambs.

I was hopping you'd post up. Got any interior and jam photos? Is the dash body color? Any of that white top color inside the cab? Column body or white? My 65 has a black column with white wheel and white dash but it's a single color body truck.

 

The black column is always correct for the 4x4 trucks. The steering wheel is either black (standard cab) or white (custom cab) in the 4-spoke 18" like ours.

There is some white on the dash. My truck has the padded dash and it would be all red underneath the pad. Then the face of the dash is partially white.

Great info on the column. Mine is a custom cab as well so makes sense. So door jambs are all body color I imagine. Does the white on the top extend into the drip rail but not over the outside of it?

Was the other two tone style with the full white hood and option on these trucks? Maybe not as it may not have worked on the wrong side bed very well.

BTW do you know of a source for rear lower bed corner patch panels on these wrong side beds? Bottom part below the tail lights.

 

I'll get you some more pictures in a bit.

Called "Deluxe Tu-Tone" - it was only available on the newer styleside bed.

Keith B had mentioned that he found some. I wanna say a place in Montana but that might have been something else I was thinking of. I thought it was in this thread but not seeing it yet.

Thank you sir!

 

I have pics of the "Deluxe Tu-Tone", 1965 2WD Custom Cab, can post later tonight if you are interested in that?

 

Might look good - the "Deluxe Tu-Tone" required the body side moldings, too, which didn't come on the wrong bed so hiding that dividing line somehow - or letting it show - choices.

Post em I'd love to see it!

 

I was wondering about the side molding with that Deluxe Tu-Tone option. I think that's my favorite style. Don't think I'd like it on a wrong bed though and I kind of like my wrong bed.

 

What was the option that included that style of gauge cluster? I have the identical one in my 65 but it has holes for switches cut into it and I've not had any luck finding another. All I see are with the white face not that silver/chrome look.

 

I just think of it as Custom Cab with Round Speedometer.

Standard Cab had the same/similar shape of bezel but painted white.

Here's my single color white truck interior. Also Custom Cab. In this case they added a bit of red paint to the dash even though the rest of the truck is entirely white.

Both of your 4x4 have the padded dash right? that was another add on option to custom cab I assume? Mine doesn't and I wasn't sure it was available in the 4x4.
