It is not the hammered finish brown I should expect to see in that truck. Did Chevy change colors, use GMC dashboard for late production 46 trucks or what?
I am using an off the shelf color for the re-do but was just curious as to why the variation in color..
Any guesses? | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 107 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 107 | I went a totally different route and had my dash, door panels, and all other iterior metal powder coated a satan black. Otherwise I will be sticking to the stock look.

It appears to be original...All the interior metal strips, door panels, dash were silver brown. Even kick panels and headliner were the silver brown. I have never seen original kick panels so I would have no idea what they look like. I have seen the hammered brown finish and know that this is not what my truck has... | | |
