Need some help from anyone that has previously restored a 37 LaSalle.  The center section of the dash would have been painted either Kasha Beige (early color) or Andes Sand (later).  Unfortunately, though we got a good match for the main dash color, Shadow Metallic, I really didn't have much to go on for matching the center section color.  To make matters worse, the whole thing got media blasted, so now, I don't even have the time worn and faded remanent of the original dash to compare any selection to.  So, my plea goes out to anyone that has repainted their dash center section and thinks they happened upon a reasonable facsimile in a modern paint formula.  To my eye, the paint that was there before we started would best be described as "silver".  Whether this was Andes Sand or Kasha Beige I haven't a clue, but at this point I'd be content to match either color.
