The Cadillac white might be a good combo, yeah, it's called "White Diamond" - has the very, very slightest hint of a yellow or gold tint to it. I'd look for a different way to two-tone it though - everybody's done the one where you break it at the upper body line. Maybe a "retro" style where it's two-toned like the earlier shitbox models, break it at both the top and bottom body line so just the center is the other color?

Please be sure to check out my truck shop projects and remember: if I made it look easy,
it's only because you weren't here to see me kicking parts, cussing, and throwing tools. :mrgreen:

I understand the road thing, TN has some
of the smoothest but when I had my 1981
bagged fullsize Blazer with 20's and really
low profile tires I felt everything, lol. The
2000 will eventually get some bolt on 19's
mainly because it's static dropped and I 2
like to have some sidewall. Any updates?
