I'm repainting inside Shelley's (1952 1/2 ton) cab with the original charcoal brownish color. On the dash, there's a stainless strip across the top and bottom of the radio speaker grille. What color should the raised ribs of the grille be? Pretty sure the recessed ribs should be the charcoal brown, but I've seen the raised ribs in everything from tan to gold color. Anybody know what's correct for original?
I understand these '52 and '53 Korean War era trucks lacked chrome. How much stainless trim did they put in the cab then?
