Sandman interior colours

[siegs57]

I have at the moment the HZ sandman ute with interior code 18V , which has a beige sandpaper hood lining. The van which I am restoring is up to the interior stage, which is also 18V and I was thinking about puting black hood lining, instead of beige. Both vehicles are Flamenco Red. Has anyone got any comments on my thoughts e.g. is black to dark ?
Thanks
Sue

Hi Sue, 18V is black for the hood lining as far as I know - For reference, see the thread "hz trim code".

Nope, it doesnt look too dark, looks good.

My HZ van is 18v and the original lineing untill last week was beige sandpaper. Original color was Winsor blue. I changed it to black and looks good. The van is orange now

HZ 18V has a neutral option, headlining can be either black or Buckskin. HX 18V uses chamois as the neutral option which is a far nicer colour for the headlining than buckskin. If you don't want the coal mine look of all black interior you could use chamois.

My HX has 18V and it looks the grouse. The van is Mandarin Red.

How about we move this from the Forum Feedback & Suggestion section and post it in the correct location called Workshop.

It makes sense because this thread has nothing to do with Feedback and Suggestions and more to do with Interior Trim.

Hey all, just been doing some work on the 12/77 HZ. I am trying to find out/ figure out the interior combination. It has buckskin seats and door trims, but the center console is missing, it has black hood lining and black carpet. The dash that is in it has been painted black and is brown under that, the glove box has been replaced and is blue under the black paint. The trim code is 1925-63 V, the paint is 567- 30183, Persian Sands MK2.
I am looking for some photos, lists, areas of reference that might help with the way it should look. Any help please??

Thanks to all, for your advise on weather I should go black hood lining, yep, I'm thinking this is the way that I will go
