I dug out my radio grille and it still has some original interior paint color where the stainless trim strips covered it. A previous owner rattle canned that blue on the interior. Unfortunately it looks like the interior paint I got from Jim Carter their PT107E isn't a very good match to the interior, as it's darker than the original and has a bit less metallic in it. The dots on the left of the photo are the new paint, and the dot on the right by the hole is the steering column/steering wheel color that was a nice match. Also are a couple photos I got of interior paint chips from TCP Global's Auto Color Library. I'm going to contact Jim Carter and see if they can send me a chip of their PT109 paint, which is described as "1947-1955 Interior Paint Medium Gray for Panel Pickup Truck as Original Chevrolet and GMC Pickup Truck" to see if that's a better match. Or I might see if the local paint supplier can mix me some from the original Ditzler color code (31174.)
