Re: The 1960 - 1966 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Factory Correct Restoration Thread

New to me 63 has 526A as a paint code which is Cameo White according to my literature. Drivers side has a faded section between the bright molding that has a smidgin of red. The passenger side is Cameo White like the main body color. According to what I'm reading there was only a 2 tone of Cardinal Red for the R10 which I believe to be Corvair.
The plate also has a 4 digit paint number that has been X'd out interestingly enough.
Although it really would set off between the bright moldings to have it Cardinal Red , I don't think they ever came that way in the C series.
Your thoughts?
Still has the crayon markings on the firewall and the rear crossmember of the frame.
It's dinged and dented but retains much of it's originality.
Oh , and is Coll Pack A/C equipped although it was installed center for a colum shift and the truck is a four speed. They heated and contoured the shifter around the the A/C unit.
