Re: {Chrysler 300} SEM "Palomino" Interior Paint & Kick Panel Question

Doug, those special 300 buckles look great. Was that the way the original accessory belts came or were the logo buckles added later? My 300H coupe, which still has its original and unrestored leather interior, has plain buckles. Does anyone know which would be correct for the original accessory in 1962, logo or no logo? I just acquired my car 2 months ago and so am still on a steep learning curve.

Hi Tom, The seat belts should be black - they turn color with age. Believe that I had “Snnake Oil” do mine. Can find info if you need it.

I too have a question about 1962 300H interiors. I am restoring and installing front seat belts. What is proper - black or tan nylon belts (and if tan do you have a recommendation)? Thanks,

Subject: {Chrysler 300} SEM "Palomino" Interior Paint & Kick Panel Question

300ers -

I wanted to share what I consider one of the best matches to the "tan" interior color on my 62 300H (may be applicable to other years).

I've spent the better part of a year looking for something close color-wise from major spray paint manufacturers and retailers (Menards, Lowes, Home Depot) without much success and today I decided to stop at a paint store/supplier to order a custom mix. When I showed Tom (sales rep at Colorvision Omaha - https://www.color-vision.biz/) sample pictures of the interior, he recommended SEM "Palomino" which was shelf-stock!

I'm super happy with the results - near spot-on.

Recently, I happened to source a set of vinyl grain-textured kick panels from a donor '61 Newport in Nebraska. I was surprised to find that they were metal stampings vs. the plastic kick panels that were in my 300H. Which one is correct? Did Chrysler change to plastic vs. metal like GM did between 67 and 68 model years? Are the plastic kick panels after market?

Thanks,

Kurt
