i am going to be restoring a 63 chevy stepside shortbed soon. i was thinking on painting it (what i call) Miller Lite Blue. (you know the blue that is on the Miller Lite cans).
my question is what color do i paint the Interior. i was thinking white but thought that dirt would show easy. (i am not good at keeping dirt off of things). but dont want a black interior either. how would like a silver look for the interior?
if i go with a silver interior do i go with the same color seats or different (like black)?

Personally in my opinion I like the blues and teals and in darker colors with a straw yellow or orange ( double 1/8") stripe. I also like the black interior. Both of these colors go well with a saddle brown interior instead of the usual gray or silver so often seen. Just my opinion on being different here guy's don't be offended. The dash and interior metal parts can match the outside color or you could use a shade lighter or darker or you could do them to match the interior. Either way any color would look good as long as it is what you like. Check out some of the trucks here or doing a google search and hit images, you may find something appealing. Let us know what you decide and post some pix please.

You could go with a blue dash and gray interior, or a blue interior. If you do a white interior, you will regret it.
