I am replacing my floor boards and was wondering what color the floors were painted. The interior of my 55 1st is gray but it doesn't look like that was the floor color. Anyone know?

Floors were painted the interior color (in one-tone interior trucks).

What kind of Chevrolet truck? Pickup-up, panel/canopy, or suburban (they had different interior colors).

Its a 1955 1st series 1/2 ton pickup. Maybe it was grey also but I can't tell now.

since I will try to paint behind the gas tank before I put the tank back, does anyone know if there is a rustoleum or other spray paint color that is close to the factory grey.

I have a some Engine Paint in grey that is very close. Check the shelves at your local AB Supply store. Also, they may still have a color chip book with the grey color in it....

If the 55-st series was the same as the 54, the standard pickup interior color was Pearl Beige. The deluxe interior color was Pulsar Gray.

As suggested above, find a spray paint color that matches your interior and paint the floor that color.
