Re: Dash color

Am pretty sure it should be a match for the dash pad color - semi-gloss black in your case. Not sure WHERE tan came from... What year truck, by the way? 67? What's your paint code for the body? What I'm getting at is I'm no positive, but I thought I recall seeing some 67's with tan interiors, regardless of ext color (i.e. like 64-66's) - and I also wonder if the truck was originally fawn or something like that... Not sure - think it should be semi-gloss black for the metal you're asking about.

Re: Dash color

I've seen quite a few with the tan or Fawn.It was flat to keep the glare down.I don't know if it was a color option or what.Maybe it depended on the assembly plant?

Re: Dash color

I would be a dollar that your dashpad was originally that tan color (probably sandalwood) because that area should match the color of the dashpad originally. What color is your steering column?
