Best Vendor for Dark brown dash pad and door panels?

[Getter-Done]

I have been searching and some of the threads were old
And things have changed so much in the last few years.

So To the point, I am helping my Nephew fix up a 1983 Chevy.

Where can I get a Quality dash and door panels?

It is in very good shape for it's age/ All original picture below.

I just bought a full rubber floor mat for it.

So next is I need to get a Dash pad and Door panels ordered.

It is no power locks and no power windows truck.

USA1 has the bet right now I think. Metal backed dash pads.

Thanks Cort60
That is probably who we will go with.

I will have to teach my nephew some patience skills

I agree, USA1 Industries is probably the best. They actually have all the correct colors. If you have an 83, I’m assuming you have a SaddleTan interior. The dash will be a dark Saddle, but the door panels were never dark. They are light Saddle.

We will probably go with USA1.
From all the search I have done on the forum this is the best choice.

When he told me he was getting this Truck,
I said we are sending the seat to TKCR to be recovered.

He busted my bubble when he told me PaPa has had the seat recovered.

So I will have to get pictures , This is a Canadian built truck.

It has dark brown door panels.

I know the PO's where too Frugal to have changed them.

I will get pictures soon.
I need to start a Nephew Build thread I guess?

Curious to see the interior pics now, lol. As far as the seat, thanks for thinking of me, but you don’t actually send me your seat anyways. That’s too expensive to ship a seat twice. I build the seat with my cores I already have restored. Saves time & shipping that way.
But I would be more than happy to do the seatbelts for you.

Is there a chance that the interior is actually Mahogany? Some people call that brown.

I will get him to take pictures when he get back home.
He is in Hawaii right now

I will check the seatbelts out also.
If they need work they will be sent to you.

This truck is in decent shape for it's age.

Here’s a Mahogany interior. Same truck, I did the seat for him, and then eventually the belts. But they are not done in those pictures.

I think it is dark saddle
I am not sure I will get pictures next week.
I was wanting him to go to the SETN with me this weekend.
But he does not get back home in time.

Ok, the dark Saddle was only the dash pad in a Saddle Tan interior. There is no such thing as a dark Saddle door panel in a 81-87 truck.
This is the SaddleTan interior. And it’s correct, the dash is dark, but the door panels are light Saddle.

Then we can order and get on the waiting list

Thanks

Have him check the glove box also, and see if the SPID sheet is still there. It will have the color. Like this one, it says Charcoal.

He said the SPID is not there.

He is back from his Vacation today and I put in an Ultimatum,

He is going to C10 Nationals with me @ Nashville Superspeedway.

I asked him for some Pics and here is what I got.

That’s Mahogany. 110% sure, especially when you show the door panels. The CUCV trucks were only Mahogany, and a few Burgundy. So that’s another way of knowing for certain.

Here’s a picture of more interior parts in Mahogany
