What's the best way to paint the inside of a 65 Chevy truck? Its all metal inside and is sliver and red now.I was thinking I could scuff everything and mask off what I never wanted painted then use some Rustoleum spray paint then use clear coat over that to protect it.im going red on the doors,dash and on the A pillars and roof.on the door panels im doing them white once I find a driver side one.the middle of the roof where its broke up is going to also be white.im thinking some pin stripes on the dash I'm really just concerned on what kind of pain to use. I seen on one of them car shows were they used spray paint And it turned out pretty good but im not sure what kind they used.I think it was on powerblock where I seen it.

DADS50 has done this and has pics. Believe he used rattle cans (not sure) and looks real nice. Power block types use spray from a gun, epoxy, 2 stage, single stage, etc.

If your looking for an original look. I think the interior paint was more a semi gloss, flatened paint. I don't think rustoleum is a good choice. Too long to harden up. And you would want something that is UV protected, I asked about krylon and they said it is for the indoor outdoor stuff. I guess what ever you use will be better than what Chev used since factory paint just lets the rust through.


Kicking self for selling off my Taskforce trucks.
Still looking for an LCF or conventional big bolt in decent shape.


As of 10-26-2022, A 55.2 Taskforce long bed now the work begins
