Hi everyone, I have a 59 fleetside with the paint code 740j. I believe the colors are supposed to be omaha orange and bombay ivory, is this correct. Also I would like to know what the color code is for the interior and the dash. They are painted a metalic coppery kind of color and the dash is a kind of textured black, both are stock. Any help would be apreciated.
thanks ....Jeff
