55 Super 88 Holiday - Interior paint
Does anyone have a source to reference the interior paint used in the 88's? The dash & top of the door panels is a metallic green but I can't find anything about interior paint trim colors to reproduce it. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have a source to order interior paint for 1955 Super 88's? The color I need is the #1891 Skylark Green Metallic. I've done dozens of "google" searches for interior paint and I'm coming up with zilch.

The company is actually called TCP Global.
They can mix almost any antique car color in acrylic lacquer, acrylic enamel, single stage urethane, or base coat / clearcoat paints.

Thank you Charlie! That really makes me happy! It's crazy trying to find interior trim information, not to mention the actual products. Now I can focus on finding out what the carpet color was and what the leather/vinyl on the door panels and back dash are 😁
I appreciate your help.
I appreciate your help.
Quality is very good, but service may be slow, so order plenty ahead of time if you can.
