Looking for some two tone 60 chevy pictures and any others people might have stashed.
Was looking at black with red interior but it seems every one has one of those :)
So snow flake white with ice blue either top or bottom ( HELP ME ON THIS) with blueish pearl and clear coat.
looking forward to some ideas.
Hmm wonder what Foos is doing :) Maybe he would sketch on up!

Look no further. You've got it nailed. Pearl White over Pearl Ice Blue - deadly beautiful. Very classy. Generally put the darker color on the low part of the body.

Thanks! So it should split right along the the line ice blue to the fins with the white on trunk, top and hood. Thats one I have never seen but I have been seeing Foos and Hunt do a few this way. Dam cool! Hunt formaly of Boyd is from Caldwell ID :) Excellent body man.

It's Foose.
I'd split the two-tone right down the peak of the belt-line. Use a pinstrip that works well with both colors to clean up the transition between them.
Another option would be to just do the roof in the white and the rest of the body in the blue (or vice-versa).

And I'll mess around with it after I digitize the pic and messing with it in Photoshop. Can't draw either but I can do some interesting things in PS and Firestarter that will allow me to change colors on layers.
The above link is pretty cool! Lot's of old modles to mess with during the winter.
