Do two-tone cars (steel roof a different color than the body) use mouldings to 'split' the colors? A black car with white top I saw did not have mouldings, it looked like just taped and painted. Another white car with black top had alum or stainless mouldings like used on a vinyl top. Would these be standard vinyl top mouldings or something unique? I am looking at a white vinyl top Lemans that I would really prefer be a white hardtop, I am just not sure how or if I could do this. Does anyone have any pictures?
Thanks!

The factory used the vinyl top moldings to seperate the colors. These moldings are not always easy to find, so it is possible to see cars with two-tone paint, and no moldings.

Andre,
The two-tone car without mouldings had an older repaint, so that makes sense now. Thanks!
