Re: 1957 chevy family truck
IMHO I would probably go something with more contrast if I couldn't match it closer.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck
Are you thinking about piping between the panels. I like the material on the left with the white and then the same color piping if you add it. The right swatch has too much texture. Tough decisions here. I went back and forth with a bunch of colors before I finally decided. I do like the color of your truck. What ever you pick I know will look great.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck
Tough decisions!
I think I like the color in the bottom picture better...

Re: 1957 chevy family truck
Yeah, I saw that it's the same color.
It quite difficult to see what fits best because of the light. At your last pics of the armrests, I would go for the bottom pic.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck
Where did you get the cut down seat? Did you cut one down or is it out of something else? Mine sits about 6 inches above the window and don't look right.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck
I think it looks great as-is and the dark kick panels tie in with the carpet. I wouldn't change a thing!
