Steering column color (and steering wheel) is a DuPont 8540 (same as PPG) which is a grey brown ("sable" is the modern name), same as Mercedes 23254, I've also found a Jaguar code #812 to also work, Sikkens color map 416H1 or 411E1.
Every other painted surface in the cab is a metallic champagne, GMA 83:36 (medium sand grey). 1947 to 1952 is PPG DDL 3613 and 1952 is PPG 33210, I believe Chevrolet formally called it a Medium Sand Grey Metallic, Sikkens color map 353F3. If you need codes for the engine (grey) or stock exterior (green) I can email them to you.

It looks like a brand new one for about $25. Vern Hi Vern, thanks, that is what I am hoping to do. I am seeking the original color of the steering wheel info. I am planning on spraying a 2 part epoxy on the wheel once it is prepped. thanks, Don Fiftyone5window [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!
