OP cskennedy10 Backyard Mechanic Joined: Apr 2013 Posts: 250 Calhoun, Louisiana	I've got a 1940 Chevy Master Deluxe Sport Sedan with trim #274. I need to get the correct color for the interior around the dash and steering column area. (the outside is black) The original interior appears to be a fleshy-tan color. Does anyone know if I can purchase the correct color without trying to "match" the paint? Chevy of the 40's catalog says Mayland Black for the exterior and Tokyo Ivory for outside trim. No mention of interior color. Thanks. Last edited by cskennedy10; 08/22/13 04:04 PM.
