I'm restoring a '57 Ford Custom 300, changing the interior color to the two-tone grey (it was green). Can anyone tell me what the correct color the dash was for this interior?

Warm Gray Metallic from a late 80's GM Astro van.    Actually a cleaner color, but the correct shade. 

I did a bunch a testing to come up with it.   I used it on my sedan.   I did it in base coat/clear coat all my parts and they really nice.

I can get an actual code if you need it.

Try Dupli-Color Truck, Van & SUV spray paint.  The color is Storm Gray.  It's a very close match and if you don't clear coat it, the semi-gloss is just about right.  I found it at my local Auto Zone.  They can order it for you if it's not in stock.
