    The color is sheen grey metallic. I got mine from Jim Carter. It is a semi flat charcoal with a slight metalllic. It should match the inset color of the dash stainless and glove box door. The steering column is a brown/grey that matches the raised portion of said stainless. Division lines in the doorjamb should follow the outer skin edges where it is spot welded in the jamb.




    Found rustoleum bronze spray paint that is pretty darn close to the sheen grey metallic interior. For those of you who want the cheaper way out.
    7754 anodized bronze. Check page 6 in how to assemble an AD post.

    Along those lines.....

    does anyone know of a rattle can close to the '54 Pearl Beige interior color?
    Mine ain't quite a work truck but with little twin boys and a little girl on the way it ain't ever gonna be a show truck either.

    Thanks, Josh

    Foo-Foo Can Paints

    First , find a paint shop that carries the full line of Rustoleum colors as they make a HUGE assortment of " Industrial " colors you can match up .

    Or , try Eastwood , they sell it in Foo-Foo cans and it's pretty good quality too .

    Remember to rinse with starting fluid before paiting and mask extra wide...

    Good on ya for including the kiddies ! they'll never forget you and your truck , I'm still hearing stories about old Nate and his dilapidated pickup :rolleyes:

    SHARE THE LOVE .
