I'm trying to make some decisions on the colors to use on my interior. I've been using the 41-48 Ford Book as reference and it's just not that clear to me. Based on the Ford Book, the dash, steering & shifter columns and emergency brake handle should all be "light tan". The dash is a light tan color (except for the face which has been woodgrained), but the light tan doesn't match the sample in the Ford Book - my light tan has more yellow in it and maybe this is just print reproduction differences. The steering/shifter column and the bracket under the dash where the hood release knob is attached) are painted a light rose beige metallic - though not matching the rose beige that shows in the Ford Book. The emergency brake handle is painted silver.
So my question is, should I just not worry about what it has been painted and just follow the Ford Book using the paint formulas and call it a day?
Thanks in advance!
