1967 Interior colors
 

My '67 Stepside came out in 514 Red. It was pretty much a base model with painted bumpers and trim. I was under the assumption that in 1967 the interior completely matched the exterior with exception of the black glovebox. When I bought the truck the dash pad was recovered in black and so was the single sun visor.

I was talking to a buddy that knows these trucks well and he said that my truck would have had the parchment interior trim. I figured it was all red. While out in the garage Friday night I decided to investigate and sure enough the original (I think) is parchment and so is the visor. Would this be correct? Would the seat have been parchment as well?

That looks more like fawn to me. Maybe the lighting throwing me off...dunno

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Looks fawn to me also

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Yeah, '67 and '68 were big on Fawn interiors, especially Fremont. The vinyl stuff [seatcover, sun shades, dash pad, etc,] was a silver gray, close to Fawn. A flat black glove box door [matching the Dash] was normal, too, for '67 only.
Based on my '68 C/10 [516] Orange Stepside and '67 white K/10 Suburban.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

My 67 SWB, was originally silver exterior, with a fawn interior. I also had a green 67 that had a fawn interior.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

My 67 is red with red seat, dash pad, sun visor and belts.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

^^^ Is your truck a base trim,Custom,or CST?

In '67 the interior paint color was the same (or close) to the interior trim color rather than exterior color, like later years . This is how GM trucks had been done all along. Parchment wasn't offered in '67 on any trim level. Fawn was a traditional base interior color for many years. There was also a metallic grey,which I don't recall the name of. Silver Fawn Poly,I think

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Sorry I meant fawn. Actually I hadn't heard of fawn until after I posted. So would the seat and seat belts have been fawn too? Doesn't really seem like the two colors go well together.

I also realized the interior is a different color when I painted my ash tray in 514. I had assumed when the truck got repainted outside they did the inside too. Starting to think that's not the case.

It's interesting what you learn everyday.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Those 67 interiors throw me off too. I've got 2 buddies with newly purchased 67s that I've helped decode the SPIDs on. One is a factory dark blue/white roof truck with what appears to be a silver argent interior, and the other is a factory 503 light green/white roof truck with what appears to be silver argent interior. Both trucks were repainted non-original colors but neither had interior painted. And of course the interior trim isn't listed on the SPIDs of the 67s.

EDIT: I meant silver fawn poly, not the argent. Couldn't remember the exact name

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

The SPID is gone but we got the truck in '71. Short stepper, 3 on the tree, small 6, AM radio. I remember deluxe heater and that was about it. It was a base model for sure

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

According to this, your '67 with 514 red paint code would have:

Argent silver on cluster and glove box edge
Silver fawn poly on all interior except cluster,glove box.
Dark fawn (0 gloss, (flat)) on upper instrument area, above the dash pad.



I think the spid would show what color the vinyl items are. Mine says Blue vinyl trim.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Mine from all i can tell has a 4613AB red vinyl trim. I have a horrible picture I can post tomorrow if it would help. The door was left down and the letters are all but gone.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

My truck had original paint on it when I bought it. Completely white exterior with medium blue interior (paint color and blue vinyl).

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

My orange 67 has all red imterior parts
My 514 red 67 custom cab longbed had red interior too

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

I got my first of these trucks in 1988.
It was a 1967 2WD Short Widebox 283 Powerglide. It was Red with Red interior.
I miss that truck. I bought it from the original owner. I traded a rusty 1973 longbox plus $600.00 for it. Because the guy wanted a longbox truck.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

This is great info...Thanks. Unfortunately my SPID tag is pretty much un-readable and bottom half is cut-off for a Chevy bowtie sticker. However it appears there were only like 4 options and I can barley read the 2 on the right. I know one says it came with a heavy-duty clutch and above it I believe says red bumper. Or something of the other.

So if I'm reading correctly, the whole interior would have been silver fawn and dark fawn from the dash pad to windshield? What about the seat color?

Its interesting to know how it looked when it rolled off the line. Not sure if its going to end up that way now :lol:

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

So it would have looked something similar to this?

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

My 67 was the 515 vermillion exterior with the 514 looking orange red interior

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

My '68 Stepside had a silver fawn vinyl fold-forward bench seat.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Heres something to look for... when i pulled the windshield out of mine i noticed the top of the dash was painted red from the factory to match the dash pad. (My orange 67) if the top of the dash is painted red chances are your interior was red too. if the dash is greyish then you most likely had fawn

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

If I had read the document correctly that I posted with 514 red exterior you would have either:

argent/silver fawn poly/dark fawn

OR

argent/red/dark red
(painted parts)

And I assume then a number of different vinyl trim color options so you could have one of many possible combinations.

I believe that is '67 fawn interior.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Yes,everything in your interior will be Fawn. With paint there will always be Silver Argent on the dash bezel (all colors) and a less glossy slightly different shade on top of dash. The door panels are painted the Dark Argent. Here is an original truck with Fawn interior. This is an early '68 still done like a '67

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

There were a lot of strange color combos from that era. Some were COPO for company trucks and others were justkind of weird. I saw an original truck many years ago,a sixty seven that had a hugger orange exterior and interior but the interior was Oxblood or maroon. The spid was original and stated the colors. I always thought of it as a strange combination but I don't know whether it was a COPO or some factory guys idea of cool.

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

. . . .

This was said to be an original, '67 Fawn cloth seat:

Re: 1967 Interior colors
 

Lots of good info in this thread. Thanks guys! I'm now considering doing the interior in fawn now but I'd have to find fawn houndstooth for my buddy buckets.

I'll probably stick with full red interior though.
