Hi, I need advice on the interior colors in the passenger cabin of 1946-48 Chrysler Windsor. My car sports a medium blue color on the exterior and still retains the original paint. The interior has same medium blue, probably Newport Blue, on the inside roof, trunk side etc. I want to change the exterior color to Pastorale Green ,correct for the year and need to know if these cars had same interior color as the exterior or had different color like GM cars of the era? If they had different color on the interior , what were those? Please help. Dev

Hi, I am restoring a '47 Dodge 4 door sedan and want information on availability of weatherstripping ans other rubber parts. Please advice. Dev

Thank you for the kind guidance, I will check. cheers.

Thanks for the picture. Coupe is really a good looking car. We do not have any of these coupe in India. And yes, the dash,windshield trim and window garnish are woodgrain. Cheers!

Thank you Tim for your valuble inputs. Yes, as you mention, the dash still has some woodgrain left but is of darker reddish tone instead of brownish as on your car.My query is becoz of the beige color on most of the metal parts and this looks very old not resprayed one.Also it is present in areas where normally no one will spay other than the factory paint shop itself. Also this color is a NC type.

thanks for youe view Greg. I helped a friend restore a 47 desoto which had a gray interior color. Beige/Creame is kind of uncommon except that may have been used on export cars. There's no red oxide anywhere on the car, what iam trying to eloberate is the shade of Beige/Creame color. Looks really good.

Thank you Bob, u r spot on.The color inside the hood panels is very similar to the pic you have attached. But on my car,not only the entire inner side of the boot lid but even on the metal portion covered by the boot lock mechanism, beige color is intact and no other color underneath it. Another part which has the same color is the window glass mechanism, the channels connecting the rotor grooves also has it. In the cabin, inner side of roof rail had the same color.And this beige is very peroid looking with reddish tinge.

Hi, Need some advice on the interior color of D24, which I am restoring,in India. This car came from the first owner, with a new paint done, over the original dark blue solid color, but with major rust on both the windshields, floor pans, dash board and rear quarter window etc. I have replaced most of the rust eaten metal and fabricated new floor, trunk floor etc. Now, as I intend to start painting the car, the interior color on in the cabin, floor, under floor, inside the fenders is required. When I scrapped, found a Beige color, which instead of yellow hue had more of reddish tone to it. This is found in the cabin, inside the fenders, on the innerside of boot lid, almost everywhere. But Inside the bonnet panels I found a bluish gray color, resembling air force blue. Will someone please let me know if the beige was used on export cars or is the bluish gray the correct one? Or is the bluish gray a primer/surfacer? This car is a Four door sedan, RH drive. Regards Dev
