Since I rebuilt the front end in the 1947.1 COE, Ive decided to rebuild the steering column and box also while Im there. With that out of the way I figure I may as well pull the dash out and refurbish it.

Good logic, right? grin

Anyways, what colors came in these trucks for the dash? Was there a color difference between GMC and Chevrolet?

The gauges will be refurbished and keep their light tan color. The knobs are the rose tan color. The seats will be a brown vinyl. Eventually the truck will be a dark metallic blue with black fenders and steps, at least thats what I think so far.

Im up for any opinions! Im leaning towards a very light tan or cream color.

Thanks, Jeff
