Maindrian Pace Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Just do a Google image search for '87-'91 F-250/F-350 pickups, and you're sure to find examples of the color scheme you want. -MJS
Haubenschild Posted November 27, 2011 Author Posted November 27, 2011 i am just trying to find the line that seperates the 2 colours

Haubenschild Posted December 5, 2011 Author Posted December 5, 2011 I got the interior painted, I will not be doing any detailing on the interior panels, i might paint some " wood " trim on the dash , since the 1:1 trucks had it
