That ashtray blackout is interesting. I've never seen that before and my car was black interior, but is now gold. Was that blackout on all other colors in '67-68 ? Looks like something I should be doing too.

Chevrolet didn't want dash colour showing through, especially when the ash tray was in the closed position. I'm sure that would've been done on any car that didn't have a black dash. Lots of cars did this kind of shadowing to help their looks....Joe

Mitch, yes that ashtray blackout is correct for a non-black interior.
