THE DASH AND STEERING COLUMN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN BROWN OR SADDLE. IT CAME LIKE THAT FROM THE FACTORY. I HAD A 1971 CHEVROLET TRUCK THAT WAS THE SAME WAY. ONLY THE DOOR PANELS, SUN VISORS, SEAT BELTSAND SEAT COVERWERE CHANGED FROM PARCHMENT TO SADDLE. BROWN CARPET WAS ADDED FOR THE C-10 CAME WITH A RUBBER MAT. THE ORIGINAL BUILD SHEET THAT IS ON THE GLOVE BOX DOOR SHOWS WHAT THE TRUCK CAME WITH. IT IS THE ORIGINAL BUILD SHEET.
