Paint help
What interior color would be the easiest to maintain and match well with a baby/powder blue ford? I was thinking a classic creme color (like on earlier 2 tone trucks), or a similar blue.

well i am kinda in the same spot i want a sonic blue color for the exterior of my truck but idk if the sonic blue will look real nice with the dark blue dash pad and door panels and carpet, but if it was baby blue it would look awesome with some darker panels

Ford had a two tone blue paint job in 76-77 that was the nicest 2 tone blue they ever had, a baby blue with a midnight blue met that I think looked just great on these old trucks. tpcglobal.com , auto colour library has all the old colours like the old type paint books, I used thier site to find the right chestnut for my 78.

The light blue looks right but the dark blue is a little lighter than the colour I was thinking of, although what you have does look good . Nice lookin truck too. 
. If you get the paint codes from your truck and match it againt the ones from the website I mentioned , it might be the same two colours I'm reffering to.
