67 Parking Brake Cover Color

[Al R.]

Could not find an answer in the archives for this. What is the correct shade of white and gloss level for the PB console cover for the 67? Was wondering if ermine white or whiter and if flat, semi, or gloss? My original is in rough condition and not restorable. It appears to be more flat and a brighter white in color.

Its ermine and has a little shine.

Maybe this will help. Colors are for 1965 Corvette, but it explains gloss level for interior parts. I think Ermine white is the same regardless of year. http://www.tcpglobal.com/aclchip.asp...rolet-pg02.jpg

There is also very good info in the archives for interior colors and gloss for 1966-67 cars from Corvette News.

I might be wrong, but my 67's white parking brake cover is white plastic, and not painted. Same with my seat backs, white plastic.

In many cases, these interior parts were originally made of proper colored plastic/vinyl. I believe that my 1967 saddle interior car is the same way. Service replacements were often a single color (black) and painted to match.
