Hello Chevy lovers!
I'm a new guy here, and want to say thanks for having me.
I'm building a 1/25 scale model of a 1958 Impala
2-dr. The exterior color is a light powder blue
factory paint. I need to know what the correct
interior colors would be? (dash, seats, rugs,
steering wheel, etc.) Can anyone help? Maybe an
old sales brochure or a pic of your cars interior?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you...Jerry

The 1958 did not have what I would call a light powder blue.There was a lighter very metalic blue called Silver Blue.The name of the color describes the color well.

A 1958 Impala with a blue exterior would have the following-

The interior will use three tones of blue.
The instrument panel,steering column and window garnish mouldings will be a dark blue.
The steerong wheel is divided into two colors.The uppwe and lower 1/4 is dark blue-the center portion is medium blue (silver blue).

The........very difficult to describe the seats and door panels.I will Email you a picture.
