Or is it possible that the interior repaint was too light of a medium blue and gives the illusion that the gb door matches the roof just because it's darker than the surrounding interior. From where I'm sitting - the gb door absolutely looks original - and very much looks like DARK blue, not medium. That's cool - and a new one on me, thanks for sharing!
I believe the interior was repainted but not the glove box door. There are runs smack in the middle of the dash, super sloppy. Too much to meet QA and original driver, IMO.

You're asking a colored/shade blind person to confirm color/shade. That's good stuff man. Seriously though, the glove box door and cab roof match, though I suppose I could remove the door, do a direct comparison.

In retrospect, I'd have liked to see this truck new. 558 C-20, 402 Super. NICE truck in it's day. I don't recall seeing a 558 restoration. I know there's a 559 out there, it's nice.


I'm slight colored blind, and slow sometimes too HA!. Just registered the outer A/C vents are dark blue as well. If you ask me, the dash pad is a dark blue too, or at least a darker blue. Irregularity? So make that medium blue everything but the roof, glove box door, A/C vents and possibly the dash pad.

For what it's worth, the primary interior color (med. blue) matches the balance of interior. Seat cover included. The bench was twice that in my project truck. Chrome trim, plush. It's half thrashed but still comfortable.
