Gary Lewis Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 I know we kid about the red interiors, which Dad's truck has, as being "Boudoir Red". I saw the pic below on FB and realized that our red isn't quite the same color, so maybe ours isn't Boudoir? http://www.garysgaragemahal.com/uploads/6/5/8/7/65879365/thinking-26_orig.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorsai Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Yes, that's the color! AKA, "French Cathouse Red" - my unlamented '89 Tempo had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salans7 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 OMG! i will never look at bubbas red interior the same ever again! My dad's 1991, 1995, and 1987 trucks all had the same red interior. It might be why I don't care for it much, I'm simply tired of it after growing up with it. I also had a buddy in high school with an 85 F150 Lariat that had the same red interior.

Not to be a smartass, but... 1984 - 1987 = Canyon Red interior 1988 - 1993 = Scarlet Red interior 1994 - 1997 = Ruby Red And that is off of memory. I know that because I wanted to change the fabric pattern in my 1985 model a few years ago when I got my 1987 - 1991 style seat - but I wanted to keep the same shade of red to match the rest of my interior. Canyon Red is a dark red/brown shade, whereas the later Scarlet Red was a bit brighter and had more purple in it. And Ruby Red looks like maroon/burgundy. (After looking at all of the fabric patterns from 1984 - 1987, I settled on the pattern from a 1987 truck, by the way.)
