Hand Brake Lever Cover
Some of the '67 and '68 trucks had a cover over the hand brake mechanism. Was that cover painted the same color as the dash, or was it semi-gloss black? Thanks.

Re: Hand Brake Lever Cover
May have been a re-paint.... it's been too long to remember the details. I just remember it matched the paint on my truck exactly but I have a foot operated E-brake.

Re: Hand Brake Lever Cover
I bought a '68 GMC from mikes71 a couple of weeks ago and the cover was interior color. Was it only the GMC's maybe? It wouldn't be to far fetched since the clusters are painted.

Re: Hand Brake Lever Cover
Brake covers & tilt columns were black...but, they look a lot better painted the interior/dash color.
