Re: 1957 chevy family truck

I'd wait a couple days for the seller.
Does it maybe have a fuse somewhere that blew?

Re: 1957 chevy family truck

IMHO I would probably go something with more contrast if I couldn't match it closer.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck

Are you thinking about piping between the panels. I like the material on the left with the white and then the same color piping if you add it. The right swatch has too much texture. Tough decisions here. I went back and forth with a bunch of colors before I finally decided. I do like the color of your truck. What ever you pick I know will look great.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck

Yeah, I saw that it's the same color.
It quite difficult to see what fits best because of the light.

At your last pics of the armrests, I would go for the bottom pic.
