Re: Dash colors




Bill, Bill Watson gave you good information, but I think I can add to it. I think he gave yo the factory paint codes. I have a 64 Dodge with the same colors on the dash. The suede color on the top of the dash is the stickler. There is a company that claims exact formulas in their paint, but it is VERY expensive. I have a Dupont color chip chart and got the old paint number for the suede The problem then was crossing that to new formulation numbers. I have painted mine, It looks really nice but I have no way of telling if it is in fsct the correct new factory color. It is a flat finish , but somewhat smooth. I thought the original finish had some texture that you could actually feel. If you are interested, I can dig through my stuff and give you the new paint info......................MO

The bottom half is a gloss red called Majestic Red
(71203).  The gloss
red was also used on the glove box lid, ashtray, steering column,
gearshift parts, side and upper windshield garnish mouldings, rear
window garnish mouldings, roof rail and centre pillar.  The
colour,71203, when used on the exterior of the car was called
Ruby Red.

The top of the instrument panel was done in a suede called Derby Red
(71300).  It was also on the lower windshield garnish
mouldings, air
conditioning dash vents and the rear seat speaker grille.

he wants to repaint it before I install it. The top of the dash
is a flat red color and the bottom half is a bright red. Does
anybody know what the colors are called or have the paint codes
or numbers for those colors? Thanks, Bill
