I have the 42-48 book and I know the name of the dash and interior color for the 47-48, I also have the paint no. given in the book. My paint jobber can not translate or cross reference to a useable product formula. My question is can anyone supply me with an actual modern paint formula such as cromabase, BASF, PPG, etc. Or, can any one supply a modern color that is close?? Thanks

Your dash is a metallic blue color. My 48 coupe has the metallic blue from a 2006 Prius(I hate to admit it). It's called Blue Steel. It may be a little darker than the stock 47 color, but it's a place to start. If I'm not mistaken the Toyotas of those years also had a lighter metallic blue. Check the Toyota colors from about 2004 to 2008

I have had 2 48 sedan coupes with the original paint. Each dash was gray. I will see what I can find.

As said in your post on the fordbarn site ..... For my (late) '47 Super Deluxe Coupe, I had to repaint part of my dash board. I took a piece of my stock dash board to my local Lowe's store and found a PERFECT MATCH .... a Spray Can of Rust-Oleum Gloss #7784 Charcoal Gray, bar code 200066 77848.

try autocolorlibrary. They have virtually any paint color for any car. May not be cheap but you will have an exact color match.
