Fridge boxers

Well, I guess Ice would be proud of me. After months of admiring and hugging my '62, i've come to really like the old fridgebox style box. In fact I've decided I'll keep it as a fridge when I get to work on restoring it, instead of swapping for a 64-66 box as I had been thinking.

Question is, did they ever have 2 tone paint schemes on these trucks? i've been scouring the net, but I cant find any pictures or information on it. I'm trying to decide on what to do for paint, and would like to do 2 tone, but I'm not sure how well it would look on this style of box.

Anyone have any pictures?

so its called a fridge. i like that style of bed because of the huge flat area to mount tail lights. im putting some off of a 65 galaxie on mine mostly to get the back up light feature...

ah i didnt even think of looking for the 57-60s pics. was it 57 they started that bodystyle?

I'd still like to find a pic of a 61-63 in two tone, but that helps. thanks

My truck is painted right for the 2-tone (the fridge posted above) It had a white rim along the top and the inside of the bed is the body color. If you want more pics shoot me an email and ill send you more of them.
