Topic: Need correct color for interior for 65 Twilight Torqouise

[kwester]

I know the color code is a different on the inside of the car. Does anyone know what the correct color code should be?

Not sure exactly what your asking so going to do a shotgun response in hopes that I hit the target somewhere

It could be any color (regular production option that year) the buyer wanted. That was the great thing (and somewhat negative) of buying a car in those days. Most were custom (to the owners desires) crafted by the buyer then the buyer waited for the car to be built and delivered. There were suggested charts that sometimes salesmen used but you could get anything (green car with red or blue interior) you wanted. They didn't care they just wanted to sell cars.

Now if your wondering what the original color was and its an early 65-66 car check the door tag if its original, check the buck tag if it was built at a plant that used them, find the buildsheet, pull up the carpet and look for the original color or for some plants it was written on the radiator support

If your asking because your interior color is similar to your exterior color and you need to know what the factory code is and you don't have a door tag or other ways of finding it.
#27 is the interior code for a standard aqua interior in 65

There's a couple of factors that determine the colors and combinations - standard bucket seats, bench seat or the GT option.
Note: Get into the habit of entering, along with the year, the plant, build date, options (A/C, P/S, etc) when you ask a question. A partial VIN helps. Use xx for the last two digits of the VIN (like 5R07C1234xx).

Jim how does having the GT option in 65 change or effect the interior color code?

Owners can put their whole VINs if they like. Not like its a secret or something IMHO than needs to be protected especially since if you show your cars its available for viewing (or for later cars you don't even need to have the hood open) for anyone to see and take note. I often do it when describing a a range of vehicles or if I'm posting pictures of someone else's car  since they are not here to make the choice for themselves.

Just a thought but Jim makes a good point. Include the important (for questions) info in your signature will save you time and us asking it over and over again before we respond with answers

I will be painting my car on the exterior Twilight Turquoise. And just wanting to know what the paint code would be for the interior.

Not necessarily the color but the pattern and color combinations that were available with the GT option.

Never heard that the interior color or patterns were limited on GT option cars. Sure its not a production period thing for 65 since they might coincide with one another.   Just asking and getting off thread so will stop it here

Yup, I mean deluxe (aka pony) interiors. To determine whether a deluxe interior "could" have been original equipment on a 65, the VIN is required.
