Which Color For Door Sill Plates?

Mark T-TB

Car Crazy from birth
I was ordering up a new hood insulator pad from Classic Industries, then poking around to see if they had anything else that I wanted to get...
My door sill plates appear to be red ones that some past owner painted tan, so I was checking them out.
Classic has new ones, but not in "Camel"... they list "Beechwood" and "Light Saddle" :confused:
Which of those colors would be what I need?
Thanks for any input.
 
Thanks guys :)
I ordered the ones on ebay just now.

Mike - I suppose you were at the Floyd Garrett Museum?
We toured there while at a Sunbeam Convention based out of Pigeon Forge back in 2012. I was most impressed - an incredible display and variety of "muscle" :cool:
 
Yes Mark, Floyd Garretts! That is a great place to go, so many different muscle cars on display. The only turbobuick was a GNX, there might have been a TTA in the past display. The ebay sills that Dave makes I am sure they are top quality!

Hi guys.. hope your families & you are all well. Glad to see the sills are well regarded.. the TTA's were the initial aim in production then the colors started.. just to try and get the cost down to a respectable amount for a licensed short run part. More bits coming out this year that will interest you a lot.
Take care.

Hmmm... I thought that I had a photo of the GNX at the Museum, but apparently not. There were several cool "special edition" cars that I had never even heard of
Is this the Tiger? It is a little tough to tell from the appearance, not sure what Alex did with the grille, but it is a Mk II. He drove it on our Tail of the Dragon tour, etc during the event.

Good to hear from you! Keep us all posted!
 
Mike - yes, Alex and his wife have 2 Tigers, that is the other one.
I thought that the displays at the Museum were great in terms of signage and info :)
