I'm looking for help with my 54 interior. Car is white with red interior. It appears that interior was painted once. where can i find photos for correct limits of white and red paint?

You look on ebay, proteam corvette etc. and see just how the colors all came together. Brad.

Re: 54 interior color limits

Define what you mean by "limits". Do you mean correct color codes? Base coat/clear coat, enamel, or lacquer?

Maybe I can help?

I'm pretty sure he means where the red interior stops and the white exterior begins in all the different places...

Thank you! Brett, i sent an email with more detail. The interior paint was poorly done about 30 years ago. Everything (just about) from the seats back including the seat frame is red and i doubt that it is correct. Anybody know if i can get spray cans of the correct red? Appreciate the feedback. Joe

Joe, Bill Hirsch and others in Hemmings offer spray cans of original colors. If you have a good sample check with a local automotice paint supplier as they should be able to duplicate and put in rattle cans.

Thanks Steve. Looking at photos, the red that was used seems brighter than original. I just had engine completely done to spec and want to work on interior and trunk through winter. Car won't see the road here in Buffalo until April. I'll check Hemmings. Joe

If it gets too cold to work on the Corvette go to the Anchor Bar and get wings with the suicidal sauce.
