Re: Interior color with Bronze
My '71 Jimmy was Bronze, originally. The PO had it painted Maui Blue [med metallic blue]. Some clues of the original paint job exist. So it looks like the interior color was also Bronze with black vinyl trim. But this is a GMC, Custom trim level and a Blazer type rig.

Re: Interior color with Bronze
I like your bronze with white top, my K1500 is an exterior twin. My interior was parchment which I maintained with a few upgrades.
Could someone smarter than me rotate the first photo, I tried but can't get it to cooperate. Thanks

Re: Interior color with Bronze
What a beautiful truck!
Parchment or black would be my choice.

Re: Interior color with Bronze
my 2 cents is that it's hard to beat parchment trim in a bronze truck

Re: Interior color with Bronze
Oldironracing, I think most would agree that ACC carpet is hard to beat, and there are several vendors that carry them. For seat covers, I think PUI is currently the best. Not sure about other interior pieces.

Re: Interior color with Bronze
I once owned a Bronze Suburban (the Bronze Beast). Parchment interior also.
I wish I hadn't sold that truck

Re: Interior color with Bronze
I really like that color, especially Oldiron's "Twist". A bit darker it would seem. And, his Rocket Igniter wheels...did you do some extra polishing around the slots?

Re: Interior color with Bronze
Parchment is tough to beat with lots of colors. It makes colors really stand out. Just tough to keep clean if used much IMO.

Re: Interior color with Bronze
What color is the top of the dash where the defrost vents go and what color are the defrost vents? My full dash is body color did I mess up?

Re: Interior color with Bronze
The metal area between windshield and dashpad,, and defrost vents
On original trucks always match dash pad color |

There really are only 3 options in my opinion Parchment, Saddle or black Original trucks that were parchment or black would have had black dash pad Saddle for the most part would have had tan dash pad along with that metal area you are referring to, also being saddle No truck ever was painted bronze in that area No matter what color interior it had From the factory But that doesn’t mean you can’t |

Re: Interior color with Bronze
Love the color.
I am going through the same process of picking an interior color for my Medium Bronze C10. Perfect thread and timing. |

Re: Interior color with Bronze
I went with black vinyl with saddle/black houndstooth.
Truck is painted Medium bronze. I think the paint code is 522
