1968 Blue floor console colors

[x-codegtcs]

I am getting ready to paint the floor console (original black) to match the blue interior scheme. Is the blue console one color (light blue) or two tone dark and light? If two tone, are the pads dark or light?

Thanks in advance!!!

IIRC, the blue console is ALL light blue.
I prefer a contrast in color. I did a Nugget Gold interior, finished the lower (base) in Dark Nugget Gold, the padded section in Light Nugget Gold.
The Blue interior you mention has a dark blue in the seat inserts & light blue on the surround. Contrast.

I just restored one for a club member, my research indicated all light blue.

Same blue as the lower.
