While I'm waiting for parts and everything is out of the dash I decided to clean up and paint the dash and start thinking about the interior end result.
I'm considering going to go back to the original H6V interior. That means White Vinyl seats and door cards which I'm not sure how enthusiastic I am about for this car. I'm at least returning to the original color all the metal parts were which lists as "dk red" in Hamtramck Historical. I've seen what looks like a very red color to more of a maroon color.
I was going to repaint the dash pad parts with a vinyl paint "maroon metallic" that was suggested but a sparkly dash just doesn't seem right. What was the original color?
If anyone has an original H6V interior they could take pictures of the various painted parts or better yet ran a spectrometer and came up with some paint formulas that could be mixed up I would appreciate it.
