Any literature around about optional interior colors? Thanks guys for any help. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 629 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 629 | True - nothing IDd on a plate or through a number on the vehicle. There were no options for interior color. They were all the same.
Lot of references on my web page (link below).

Wonderful resource (and I can't believe you moved twice during the project). The reason why I thought there might have been interior color options is because under the layers of pain on the pieces that should be that hammered paint I keep finding a color that looks like Airdale Brown on top of the black that must be the primer. In your photos your dash, doors, etc. look gold. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 629 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 629 | Yes the photos do make it look a bit gold. It is really more of a beige with the hammertone in it. This was the standard color for all the trucks of this era.
