In Reply to: Interior paint question after looking at Dave H's truck posted by Howard in Newcastle on Thursday, August 18, 2005 at 9:57AM :
The 1946 WDX through 1950 B2PW126 trucks came with the brown headliner, brown retaining strips and brown seat covering.
Sometime after 1950 Dodge changed the headliner to gray (light gray headliner, charcoal gray sides and rear window surround) and the retaining strips are gray. I went with a mid-fifties paint color (Pine Green) so I tried to duplicate the mid-fifties headliner. My side panels actually are medium gray rather than charcoal like the originals and my retaining strips are a light gray. I have some nice interior photos of original trucks with the gray/charcoal interior and will try to add them to my albums at some point.
Thanks for your kind remarks on my truck.
