The color varies, but is a metallic beige. I mostly see maroon or matching light beige seat and side panels. Does anybody know if all the trucks had the beige paint? Did they all have the same color seat and side panels or was this an option? Here are my pictures.

The stitching was a little different. The deluxe side panels were matching. Looks like so: http://rides.webshots.com/photo/1538703232032470346qPXvdP I have found this only at Jim Carters, but it might be available at others.

Excellent restoration!

On mine the steering column and steering wheel look like they were sprayed the same color as the dash and doors. It is so faded, it is hard to tell what color it was originally. The seat was recovered in blue and the side panels are black. Again, they have been beat up and one for sure was repalced. I cant tell from what is left of the other, it's orignal color.
I am keeping the outside stock, but haven't decided what I am going to do with the interior. I want it to have the flavor of the era and not be too custom looking, but am not sure I will stick with entirely stock.
Thanks | | |
