I stole this picture from a thread on here and it has the color scheme that I want when I do paint my truck. I have gone back and forth on the flat or gloss black but I have always come back to this paint job:

I am converting my 85 to a 73-74 style front end and adding all the trim so the exterior is settled(for now). I have to pick out a color for the interior now. The truck is going to get driven alot so i want an interior that is easy to keep clean.
Seats: I want the Scat ProCar Rally seats with a jumper seat in the middle. Leather or fabric/vinyl? Black, grey or tan?
Carpet: ACC black grey or tan?
Door panels: I am either going to have the stock door panels wrapped in same leather as seat or go the Rod Doors way.
I have a dash from a 65 that I am putting in.
I am building the truck somewhat pro-street style bc I will take it to the track and I want it to perform well there but I don't want a full-on "race" truck so it will have a roll cage. Should I paint the roll cage body color?
