I used Y&Z wiring for my B. Quality was correct and excellent. http://www.ynzyesterdaysparts.com/ Roger Schaaf ----- Original Message ----- From: Rich Barber To: Ralphgorenstein@xxxxxxx ; Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2007 12:29 PM Subject: [Chrysler300] 300 B dash color? The "tan" part of the '55-'56 300 dashboard is a creamy, beigy tan and worth the effort to get the correct shade. I'm asking again for that paint code for the several of us that are at that point. It almost looks like it is baked on and I have seen numerous examples of that paint peeled off in strips. It would appear that careful surface preparation & priming of the bare metal will be required to get a good, durable and shiny finish. Ditto, the black parts. While your dash is out, you might consider a wiring loom replacement. It will never be easier. Even if those old wires look ok, they are no doubt brittle. I don't have my references handy, but I recall that Rhode Island Wiring and Narraganset Wiring offer looms for the '55's. If your radio needs attention, now is the time to do that, also. Best wishes for a successful resto.
