47 GMC interior paint colors and repainting interior
There is probably a thread on here about colors. I am trying to find out the color of the interior of my 47 GMC truck. Some things I have read say they thought the only color was a Champaign kind of color but I confirmed the outside is pimpernel Scarlett and I would think that might not look real great. I am also trying to find out was the dash and all of the interior the same color? Was dash maybe a black? Where did they break the paint on the door opening? Where did the exterior stop and the interior color start? If anyone has a source to show what colors were used and what parts were painted those for my truck I would really appreciate it

Re: 47 GMC interior paint colors and repainting interior
I think there are more Chevy original survivors than GMCs that I've seen over the years. I can't be 100%, but I thought Chevys were the Champaign color and GMCs were more grey interior. The black you may see was a dark maroon black primer back then.
And the transition varies, being these were just trucks. Out of the 3 cabs I went thru too get a decent one, they all varied. I picked the outer skin seam as the transition, but it's a slow taping process. Probably way too precise compared to the factory.
