paint scheme help

I would like to paint the inside of my 56 a different color fron the outside. Has anyone done this and coud you post some pictures showing where you changed colors around the door jambs and the door edges? Should this be done so that the change line is covered by the weather stripping? thanks

This sounds like a smart answer, but is not intended that way. Interiors I have seen are whatever you see inside with the doors closed. That's one color and the door jambs are painted like the outside is painted. If the outside is two toned then the door jambs that run into that color is two toned. I hope this helps, I could be wrong. I was once before. this is my second marriage.

Just as long as you can't see the interior color when the doors are closed.

I knew a guy who bought a brand new Ford, he wanted it two toned, black overall with red center panels and red interior. It looked horrible because they must have took a red truck off the line and painted the top and bottom black. Every seam showed read

Photo slide show of trucks

I have a bunch of photos from the 2008 supernationals in a slide show. There are a lot of outside shots, but some inside photos as well. You might see something you like. Once you go to the page. Look at the top of the slide show box. You'll see the word "pictures" in the upper right side of the slide show screen. Click on the word pictures. You'll be able to scroll through the thumb nail photos to get to what you want. I have a ton more interior photos that I'll eventually post on our interior page....just haven't gotten that far yet.

Here's the page:

Get a favorite beverage and some popcorn....there's a lot of photos!
