Re: Dash color scheme

I once had a '57 GMC with factory light and dark green interior. I believe the upper part of the dash was dark and the lower was light. Maybe the panels that held the gauges were dark as well.

Re: Dash color scheme

Well, from the factory my '57 Chevy was two-tone. Dark grey on the dash top and floor, light grey on the vertical dash and the upper half of the cab. I believe I posted some pictures in one of the threads linked previously. Similar to this:


This looks like a common way to split colors, too:
