    I have a couple of consoles I'm about to redo.
    I have em stripped down tubbed (BATH) and cleaned.Metal parts
    reconditioned,blasted painted and so on.I need some info on Re Coloring the
    housings. I know the dash and most of the interior parts are Charcoal
    Metallic as per Bob Perkins in some of The MM mags.What about the
    console??Same there too?
    I have 3 to work on a 69 a 70 and the one for my 69 Shelby .....I have 2
    practice pieces so to speak.I do Mine last after I decide what looks
    correct.
    Thanks JW
     
  2. Don't believe they were painted just bare plastic. Also remember that not all of your dash was Dark Charcoal Metallic - the four small ears (for lack of a better term) should have been semi-gloss black from the supplier
