    The column matches the brown in the center grille and glovebox door.

    Was the steering box itself at the end of the column the interior color also? The color is Farrara Blue the orginal GMC color here is the Nason Single stage paint code BS456.

    The whole steering column was the same brown that the interior column was. I cannot say if the steering box was painted, as I have not found one with surviving factory paint......
