i have a 63 non unibody custom cab that needs a paint job. what is my est source for proper 2 color paint jobs. i.e. color codes tht went together and what gets painted what color? (roof,hood,inner bed,pillars, etc)

 

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 14-Apr-02 AT 10:50 PM (EST)]I am not sure if the non-unibody (57-60 box) were available with the Custom 2 tone from the factory in '63; I could find no reference to this particular modelbeing offered with this option. However, my research also did not turn up anything saying it wasn't available, so I guess it could be done. I do know the 2-tone where the roof is a different color was available as a "new for 63" choice. It used Wimbleton White for the first time; previous 61-62 used Corinthian white. Wimbleton white is used as the secondary color on all the 63-66 2 tone models. Any Ford color, except for white of course, could be used as the main color on a 2 tone job.. If you are doing a Custom 2 tone: the hood, upper doors and around windows, cowl, side windshield posts, top sides of bed, top edge of header panel and top edge of tailgate all get the Wimbleton white. Follow the body crease on your cab and bed. They do not line up perfectly, due to the 57-60 box, but this would be correct. Under the hood is white, but NOT the roof or back panel around rear window. The interior would get the dash in white, I would use white 64-66 Custom Cab door panels to complete the look! Inner fenders are semi gloss Ford black. With the more basic 2 tone, only the roof and around rear window get the white treatment..

 

Hi I have a 63 non uni body F100. I purchased a repo of the original sales brochure and it lists all of this. I think I got it from Mac's. It cost something like 9 dollars.

Kenny - I did my '66 recently, and I was careful to do it as the factory did, so if your '63 cab is painted the same way I'll be able to look to mine for answers.
