Is the dark blue on the top of the dash still present? Might not be more than a line that was covered by the factory pad left though due to the reshoot.
yes
Here are a few pics, well 10 maybe. The first round are point and shoot kodak 10mp and the second round 15mp cannon dslr. I tried to capture the difference on the top of the dash. I am not a photographer, that is my wifes camera. The top of the dash was never repainted and it is a shade darker behind the dash pad. There is a faint paint line and you can see the difference toward the front of where the dash pad would be. I also took some pics from behind where the gas tank was as it has been hidden for 45 yrs of the base interior color. The top of the dash is clearly darker than the face of the dash. So 2 different color of blue on the interior that are different than the exterior on the 4537AD paint code for 1967.

Re: Done some painting the last few days

These are when I tried out the dslr camera. I think the kodak turned out better. Clearly operator issues...

Re: Done some painting the last few days

Dragging up an old thread here.
I'm curious if these interior color differences also apply to 68's. I just painted my cab 507 blue inside and out. Should it have been a different color inside? With a third color for the dash top?
