47-55.1 47-53 interior color saga continued - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So I'm finally getting my truck painted, 5 years into this project. Of course I did all the research here and on Stovebolt about the original interior color. I gave the painter the PPG 27467 code and his supplier could not match it to anything currently made. So I bought a can of the Rustoleum 7272380 and we did a spray-out and went to the color chips to find a match.

I found a color that comes darn close, it's Sherwin Williams 45800. To my finicky eye it's a little more to the gray side and a little less brown than the Rustoleum, but the Rustoleum isn't a perfect match either.

So there's another paint code you guys can use. And yet more mystery and confusion to this topic.
