1984 Doe skin Tan color.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*GTA* · 01-26-2005, 04:39 PM

Hi all..

I have a 84 GMC Sierra Classic 4by4 It is Doe skin Tan and Frost white.... it is a real "looker" it is fully restored and I have only once or twice ever crossed paths with another like it, could any one tell me if there is a way to find out if there were many produced that year in that color combo, thanks ..GTA.....

also i forgot to ask this truck has a "mahogany" color interior, ( light bronze color ) has any one found a exact replica of the fabric ( i am really picky ) I have one tiny small tear starting along one of the seams and i would like to re-do the entire seat, thanks ......

Did you try Original Auto Interiors at www.originalauto.com ? They made me new factory seat covers for my 61 T-Bird using the original bolt stock. They have excellent sources for getting the original interior materials.

Hey GTA, I have an 86 custom deluxe that is all Doe skin Tan with mahogany interior. I'm going to repaint my truck this year going to a 2 tone. Could you send a pic of your's. I don't remember seeing a 2 tone using the Doe skin color?

72 CustomCamper · 01-28-2005, 12:59 AM

I've never seen those colors used together. I think I'm going to repaint the Doe skin and use a Rootbeer color as a 2 tone...

*GTA* · 01-29-2005, 07:12 PM

Thanks Jeff, I hope every one likes it, it was a LOT of work, and now only see's sunny dry day's, I drive a 2 wheel drive in winter and a 4 by 4 in the summer, oh well....

Sean

72 CustomCamper · 01-30-2005, 12:42 AM

That's a good looking truck Sean. I can't decide which 2 tone style I'm going with. Probably like the blazer that Ken posted but putting the tan where the white is on that blazer and using a rootbeer where the tan is...

Chuck

*GTA* · 01-30-2005, 01:36 AM

Thanks, I like the idea for your color as well, I think it would look great .sean

**Boog** · 01-30-2005, 09:03 AM

I had an 85 Blazer that was solid Doe Skin Tan outside with tan interior. When I bought it there wasn't another one that color around here. Later a couple of others showed up. Nice cool color and doesn't show dirt much.

72 CustomCamper · 01-31-2005, 02:04 PM

Hey Sean, here's a shot of Moya. She's not as good looking as your truck, but will be one day...

Chuck

*GTA* · 01-31-2005, 06:17 PM

hi 72... It's a start....I love that color,

did any one ever have their truck "documented" through GM historical services?? I did and here is how it breaks down....2101 Produced for sale in Canada....( same model # only ) 4wd long box 1/2 ton and 650 with YE9 ..."Sierra Classic" though it does not give a color break down...does any one have the American production #'s as well or the color break down would even be better, thanks sean....

Stingray42 · 02-02-2005, 01:41 PM

lol my truck is nearly identical to yours.... same colour... same rust on the bottom of the filler door and cab corners... lol. brown interior too! Does this mean its worth more than I think? lol this is just my beater!

ahhhh..........

I haven't,but I do have the original order form that came with my truck. I know that GM used that color code 61 for a few years...

Chuck

*GTA* · 01-31-2005, 09:35 PM

Chuck,

Does your truck have that "mahogany" Interior?you know that Bronze color....I gave "original Auto Interiors a call and also sent them a pic, They have my Material in stock!!! I am just amazed

It is pricey at 70$ per yard But at least it is totally original they are sending a sample to me to confim before i order, Now I can finally work on the restoration of the inside !!! if you have a pic of your interior that would be great!! sean...
