    Hi,

    I am looking for the colour or type of simulated wood grain pattern, that was on the inside window trim pieces on the 1940 Mercurys.

    David-

     

    I saw this on the Early V8 message board and thought it may help you

    I would appreciate information/photos as to the correct window trim

    wood grain finish for my 1940 Mercury 4-door sedan. Lauren Matley in

    Phoenix will be doing the refinishing. I do have a sales brochure but

    was told the final product could have been slightly different. Also

    wondering if anyone has the paint code for the dash, steering column and

    steering wheel. FYI – I found someone that reproduces the grooved dash

    trim.

    Thanks! Bob

    Bob, the correct wood grain finish is “silver oak grain”. This is a

    straight oak grain done with a dark (almost black) grain pattern on a

    light tan base. I don’t have good photos of the grain work any more.

    Tower

    Paints, a V-8 Times advertiser, advertised that they had the correct

    dash paint colors. I color matched mine to an original glove box door

    that was removed from a car in the 50’s. I removed the plastic from the

    door and used the color under the plastic.

    I thought that this was the best representative of the color, but after it uploaded, it became more blue. I will try again.
