newb from ca.
hey what's up guys i just picked a 65 c-10 long bed i thought i would do an intro. it's got power steering and brakes 283 powerglide. i was wondering if i can buy dash paint in a rattle can form? if so who sells it. I don't have much in the way of plans for it as I already have a full project. it's a 51 plymouth chopped four inches. and a ton of other things done to it. i also owned another c-10 about a decade ago that was pretty crazy.it's the last pic.

Re: newb from ca.
cool trucks! i'm curious about the paint as well, because it looks like someone rattled the inside of my '66 I just picked up...however, i think it's a bit darker than it should be

Sometimes paint shops can mix a color into a spray can for you. Bottom of the chart " FAWN " 30Y-3576 80T-1580

Re: newb from ca.
Welcome to the board from the Hoosier state......................................... Licaroc13, The Interior of the 66 years trucks were painted a different color than the previous years. It was sort of a medium green color.When I had my burb painted, my paint guy also painted the inside the fawn color. He took the glovebox door and they matched the color perfectly.

Thats a nice score Glendale, it sits really nice and looks killer as is. You get the black plates with it? If so that a cool little bonus...

The stock '66 interior was two-tone. The regular light "fawn" color was used on the steering columnn, steering wheel, headliner, doors and kickpanels but a darker shade of that color was used on the dash to cut down on replective glare to the windshield.
