Interior Assistance

I am in the middle of changing the color of my interior and need to see some pics of different color options. The truck is going to end up orange so please post pics of any color interior you think would look great in a orange truck. At the moment I am leaning towards a light grey/black two tone. Post em if you got em. Thankx

Re: Interior Assistance

Black would go great with an orange truck. Mine is red with saddle interior, and I love it.
On the 81+ trucks, I prefer black interiors, because the shiny trim looks great against the black. On the 73-80's, however, I prefer the woodgrain trim, so I like brown interior.

That link will lead to a very classy interior in black and red.

Sometimes just hearing someones opinion does the mind good. My first plan was to go all black but I kinda feel like its been done to death. And I guess the reason is because its so universal. Has anybody got pics of a all white interior? If so I could print it off and do a lil adjusting with some color pencils. That would give me endless fuel for thought.. Thanks for the replies

Re: Interior Assistance

Here's one from a truck that comes to our local cruise-in that I hope to copy in the near future. My truck is Gypsy Red, looks red in low light and orange in bright light.


This is how mine is for now along with a couple of members trucks I saved for ideas.

Re: Interior Assistance

Nice pics of some very nice interiors! Appreciate the ideas each one illustrates. They all look good!

This is one of those topics where "more is always better".

Those door panels look great! Are those aftermarket door panels? If so, they are the best quality I have seen! I am very curious!

Re: Interior Assistance

I like the black and grey better the all black looks good as well just my .02 cents lol. I have seen a few in person that I really liked and that looked pretty good. Sorry no pics of any of them on my computer at all. Hope this helps out somewhat.

Where did you get those stainless inserts for the door panel without the pull handles? I have seen them before but dont remember who carrys them. The black and grey looks good. Mine was red also and I hated it.

Re: Interior Assistance

Had some free time yesterday and decided to go ahead and start on my color change(Grey and Black). Done all my trim grey, door inserts black and dyed my carpet black. Still have to do my door panels(grey) and order a new dash pad and get it dyed(black) and installed. Are Classic Industries dash pads worth buying? Will get some pics posted when I get it put back together. Thanks for all the resplies

Re: Interior Assistance

Looking forward to pics of your project and the continuation of this link. Always nice to see what others can do to this component of our trucks.

Regarding Classic Industries dash, here is a more recent link on that topic. The search engine for this forum is another great resource as well for this and everything else related to these trucks. I tend to spend a lot of time with that as well as browsing the current postings. :

Hope you enjoy the progress as well as the process with your interior project. Plan to be doing something similar myself when warm weather returns to the midwest.

Great topic!
Mark

Thanks! They're the LMC door panels. I had to carefully use a drill press to cut the holes for the window crank and all the trim, but other than that they're great quality. I like the way they looked when I first got them, but they're kind of thin. The passenger side already cracked. I'd suggest going with GM panels if you can afford them, but I'm standing by my color choice! Thanks again guys.
