I don't think so? I think the factory optional stripes were always tri-tone.

The original truck it came off was a 78 half ton chevy with yellow and white. the blue you see was an early attempt to make blue and silver two tone by my gpa.

Hood stripes might have been part of that ZY5 Exterior Decor package.

After searching around for old pictures, some years had two-color stripes and the later years, or maybe '80-only, had three-color stripes.

They are an uncommon sight.

My friends company use to have a diesel with the same 2 stripe paint scheme in the early 90's. This truck has a later grill in it based on the visible gas cap.

Now that you pointed it out... it doesnt look right. that paint and style doesnt mesh with my brain with the grille. Its nice looking, yes. but i feel the grille should.. recess? more? Hmm

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner give that man a kewpie doll.

Included hood ornament; hood accent stripes and two tone paint.
This truck makes me so sad... It had so many good options from factory and it was quite beauitufl based on the bed and hood and all that.. but just lays to rot..

someone offered me 2k for the hood on a different website.


they have two tone yellow/white and are one of the NOS and pristine stock kind of people, and apparently ZF5 is more often a ford transmission swap than an option in these trucks
