Hello to all; Does anyone know where I can get the dash paint colors, for my 37 Master Deluxe? I know the top part is called sephia brown? and the lower is plover beige. Now, I don't plan on repainting the whole dash, just the radio face plate, ash tray, and a area left, of the Inst.cluster where some "knot head" drilled a hole for a push button start switch. I've tried two different paint shops in the area, and I was told that they couldn't match the brown, but were very close, on the beige. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated! Thanks,

Well, after I took the advice of a fellow VCCA member, I took my glove box door off and took it to a local Car Quest, auto parts and paint supply store. They scanned the front side of it with the lazer and 15 minutes later, I had my paint. I painted the radio face plate, and it was such a close match, you could hardly tell the difference. That was the darker brown,{sepia}. In the spring, I'll take the car to them, and have the lower part of the dash scanned, {plover beige}. Thanks to you all for your advice and help.
