67-68 factory steering wheel colors

Tried searching the forum and I can’t find a complete list of factory 67-68 interior colors (specifically steering wheels, not necessarily the same as interior paint colors). Does anyone have a source that confirms what was available from the factory?

UPDATE:

Confirmed...
Light Green (aka turquoise)
Light Blue
Gold
Red
Fawn (light gray)
Dark Gray (67 GMC only)

Unconfirmed...
Black???
Medium Blue???
Others???

You can ad turquoise to your list. My 67 is 505 dark green with turquoise interior.

Re: 67-68 factory steering wheel colors

I'm curious about the black steering wheel. What color combination with that come on? I know the later 71/72s will sometimes have a black steering column in an otherwise colored interior. Same situation?

Panelman, i'm thinking your turquoise is the same as what GM consider is light green (?) your interior definitely looks the same as my 67 which has an interesting mix of a turquoise upper dash combined with light green lower dash, door panels, cab etc.

Re: 67-68 factory steering wheel colors

I believe the black steering columns on 71-72 was the tilt option.

My '67 K/10 Suburban had a total Fawn interior --black instument panel and glovebox -- white exterior.
My '68 C/10 Stepside is factory 516 Orange, with Fawn interior accents: steering column and wheel, Fawn edging on black instrument panel, Fawn steel door panels, Fawn vinyl sunvisors, seatbelts, dash pad, bench seat. Main interior color was 516 Orange, same as the outside.
[After MY 1966 ''Omaha'' got dropped from the 516 Orange description. Same color.]

And Fawn

But I’m not convinced about the turquoise or the black. Any documentation on those?

Also was there a dark green?

Re: 67-68 factory steering wheel colors

I'm pretty sure Black was available in the GMC's in 67. Eric Johnson's and GMCkid's 32 mile truck are Fawn with black column and steering wheel.
