my 69 is exactly like this truck: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-F-1 ... enameZWDVW , except mine has skyview blue interior and a white roof. why does this one have white interior?
what determines the interior color on two tone paint jobs from factory? i thought it was the actuall color part like mine.

maybe the ebay truck's interior was painted white

In this picture it looks like there is some blue paint on the gas tank. There is a patch of blue under the sending unit.

If you look the door jambs are white with a tapeline transfer to blue, the truck was most likely all white from the factory

My dump truck used to be red (now blue) and it had a red tank. My yellow parts truck has a yellow tank and my sky blue truck has a blue tank

The in cab tank I removed from my '68 CS was "Pebble Tan"
like the rest of the truck...
the interior appears to be the factory original color (according to the vin#)

That truck is also listed in craigslist, I posted the link to it a week or two ago. It's literally 10 minutes from my hometown in NJ. Next time I head home I could look at it for you guys...

I agree with Steve302, the truck was originally all white. I think on two-tone trucks the interior was the same color as the hood.

yeah, i think the interior was the same color as the primary color on tu-tone trucks, at least mine is, was, were....

Hello,
if you look at the sideview pic of the engine you will see where they missed a huge area with the black spray can, the firewall was white. Also the cowl doodads other than that black plug are all painted blue indicating a repaint or 2 tome addition at one time. If you look close at this truck its a little rough, but still a nice truck.
