Default 82 Silver Interior?

I'm having a problem identifying the correct interior color of the 82 I recently purchased. Car is all original, in incredibly good condition overall but needs a few trim pieces such as driver's sun visor. To me the color is more of an 'oyster' - off-white with a very light silver tint to it but none of the options for 82 list 'silver' or 'oyster'. Even the local "Corvette specialists" aren't sure - what gives?? Was there an early 82 silver option not listed reference materials I have? Any help appreciated - I need that visor in San Diego!

What's the code on your trim tag?

Sometimes it is hard.. if you look at the samples below you'll see the different colors of Gray and Silver Green. What makes this bad for you is that the gray will get a greenish hue to it with age.

So... I would look at the trim tag

132 Gray Leather
182 Charcoal Cloth
22 Dark Blue Cloth
222 Dark Blue Leather
402 Silver Green Leather
592 Silver Beige Leather
64C Camel Cloth
642 Camel Leather
74C Dark Red Cloth
742 Dark Red Leather

If one is not there, then look for an original carpet sample say.. under the seat and compare it to the picture below.

Default Found it...(I think)

Found the following website: http://corvette-world.com/corvette_1...mbinations.php

It says I have Silver over Charcoal paint with Silver Gray interior. Woohoo - it matches!
