Dash paint color codes
Dash paint color codes
Anyone know the color codes for the light blue and white two tone dash?
Just driving my truck.
Re: Dash paint color codes
Was it a separate option to get the two tone dash? My two tone truck has a single colour dash.
Sorry to hijack, someone who knows will chime in soon about the paint codes I'm sure.

Re: Dash paint color codes
The dash should match the color of your truck Depending on the year thw white would be Corinthian White or Colonial White.
Your vin should hold the secret

What year Slick do you have?
Does it have the optional / rare steering column with the invisible shifter?

Re: Dash paint color codes
The '66 I have as my avatar is a Custom Cab and originally had a two tone dash. The colors were the same as the exterior, turquoise and off white, and appeared to have been painted at the same tine as the truck.
Perhaps the two tone dash was part of the two tone CC package?

Regarding the padded dash, I think it was first offered on '65 models.
I'm not sure on the '61-'64 models, but with the '65/'66 models, my understanding is that even if you ordered the Custom Cab (CC) package, you could still delete items from the package - OR - if you didn't want to order the CC package, you could order any combination of item(s) from the the CC list of items as a separate option and simply add it to the standard cab order.

Re: Dash paint color codes
Haha, yes, I have the super rare invisible shift lever.
It's a '64 F100 2wd. According to my VIN, the paint code 'VM' is for Academy Blue and Wimbledon White.

I'm sure I haven't seen as many Slicks as many others here, but I'll state that I have not seen a '61-'64 Slick with a factory padded dash.
ANYONE here ever see a '61-'64 Slick with a factory padded dash?

Re: Dash paint color codes
The original xl100 drag pickup shows one in it and it is a 1963.
Re: Dash paint color codes
Yeah, I admit, I thought of that truck - but I think most would agree that truck was "so much off the beaten path of production" that I'm not going to consider it as an example of what was 'available' from the option list to the rest of the truck buying world. As I recall, that particular truck was also depicted with a vinyl top too...... a feature I'm not considering as "normally offered or available" to the masses.....just as the 427 wasn't to be found on the commonly-offered Slicks option list.1964WVFORD wrote:The original xl100 drag pickup shows one in it and it is a 1963.
But for the sake of clarity, I'll restate:
Has ANYONE here ever see a '61-'64 Slick with a factory padded dash - besides the '63 XL100 truck?

however from the 61 parts and accessories book a part #
C1TB-810490 (pad only)
C1TB8104200-A - kit including the following
pad
3 moldings
20 retainer clips
cement
in addition the code A01 for the pad (black)
guessing not many people ordered this option as back in the day trucks were working beasts, not fancy living rooms on wheels like today
dont remember many cars of that vintage , falcon, fairlane to name a couple i owned that had dash pads either
however if they were listed in the accessories they were made. and not just the one on the xl.
wondering if they came on the 64 ranger from the factory

Re: Dash paint color codes
Mine is a Custom Cab and has the two-tone dash as well, but the white on the lower part of the dash doesn't transition into the doors on both sides. So I suspect either one of my doors was swapped out at some point, or the entire truck was repainted inside and out and someone made a boo-boo.mercuryv8 wrote:Was it a separate option to get the two tone dash?

What does it say on your VIN tag under "Trim Code", Nic?

Re: Dash paint color codes
Cool, I'll have to check what mine is to compare.
Re: Dash paint color codes
My uncle had a 1962 with a padded dash. The truck was two tone black and white with a black padded dash. It also had the big wrap around rear window. Nice looking truck, I learned to drive in it. Now you know how I got here.

Re: Dash paint color codes
My '63 F350 has the padded dash, and I have no reason to believe it was added later. Probably pretty un-common on the f350's.
BTW, the two tone did not "spill over" on the later Custom Cab doors.

VERY cool, Jim! Thanks for sharing that information! Just for the record, do you recall if your uncle's '62 was a F100, F250 or ?jjim7 wrote:My uncle had a 1962 with a padded dash.

Paul, Thanks for sharing your padded dash info! What is the color of your '63 F350s dash pad? I would guess the pad color is black?Toyz wrote:My '63 F350 has the padded dash, and I have no reason to believe it was added later. Probably pretty un-common on the f350's.

I have an idea that may be interesting: Rather than highjack this thread, I will start another thread regarding Slicks with factory dash pads - Jim, Paul, and anyone else interested please go: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=35503
