1) I am in the process of cleaning up my 66 coupe with a dark blue interior. I have gone through the archives and noticed that there have been discussions about different shades of blue. Most of this discussion has referenced the light blue, but should I be looking for two different shades of dark blue? If so, what would the codes be and which parts received which shade. (The only codes that I can locate for a single shade are Dupont 9283 and Ditzler 13241.) Also, one post did reference two different shades of dark blue in 65'. Was this different for 66?
2) The exterior of my door panels are in decent shape except for some cracks on the rear of the driver's side arm rest. I have heard that this can be fixed. Does anyone have any guidance on materials or process for this? Also, the car was left outside for a few years and "took on water". This has caused the backing material at the bottom of the panels to be somewhat more brittle. Any recommendations to fix this. My thought was to find some sort of spray that may penetrate and harden this fiber board?
3) The chrome on my accessory knobs looks good, but the black interior has scratches. Any tips for fixing? Is the paint gloss vs. semi gloss? Anything else special about it?
Much thanks for any help provided!
