    Kenny is having computer problems so I will chime in for him. His '62 was original Red exterior with Black painted metal interior... so at least in '62 it was done.

    You can see his car inside and out here:

    The 63 wagon I just bought was originally something like "Glacier Blue" exterior and a sandy beige interior metal. my convertible is red/red.

    My 62 was Sandshell Biege on the outside and brown on the inside.

    Wow, that's one beautiful car. It sure looks like he put a lot of thought and care into his restoration, and documented it all so well. Great link, thanks.
    I'm still not sure what to do with mine. Either painting the inside sheet metal black to match a new interior, staying with the red interior, or putting black interior in with the red metal, not sure how that would look.

    For what it's worth, my '65 Ranchero was Wimbledon White with blue interior I chose to retain the blue interior, but changed to a custom white exterior.

    I talked to Kenny today and he said there was evidence that the interior was not originally black. There are a few runs on the bottom part of the dash.

    I think any of the combination you mentioned would look fine.

    You can always Photoshop a good interior picture.

    My '64 is robin's egg blue on the outside, and beige on the inside although it had dealer installed blue vinyl seatcovers when I got it. My two '65 Futuras were light metallic blue outside, two tone inside - interior metal was not the same blue as exterior: Springtime yellow on the outside, beige on the inside like Roger's wagon.
