Re: What color was dashpad and steering wheel with a Parchment interior?

The correct color for a parchment interior dashpad/steering wheel is Sandalwood (very light tan - much lighter than Saddle (brown)) and is not available in aftermarket color options for dash, etc. This color did not survive very well in these trucks as most of the parts I see in this color are falling apart. This is true if the truck had a standard (non-tilt) column.

If the truck had a tilt column, the column and steering wheel would/could have been black as well as the carpet, belts, etc.. All tilt columns and were black with black steering wheels.

What color is the metal dash between the dash pad and the windshield? That metal dash color should match the color of the dash pad.

Here is a picture that shows what the factory sandalwood wheel looks like (not my picture).
