Can't comment too much on the 340 but I recently restored a 1958 Farmall 240 and found an original IHC NOS 240 dash panel with significant shelf wear and scratches which we refinished. The person who does my painting restores antique automobiles and trucks for museums and he matched the color with current available automotive quality paint. My email is open and if you would like the paint codes off of the paint can I would be happy to share with you through an email. I believe as others noted that the color later changed to black but that was after production ceased for the Farmall 240 and maybe even the 340 but at least for the earlier ones, Hal.
 
My T340 is a 1960. I restored a 240 for a guy a few years ago & painted the Dash Black. Don't know if it was correct or not. didn't know the difference then. I got a toy T340 and it is grey and friend has a 340 tractor and it is Grey, don't know the year. Thanks again Gene
 
Just got our Red Power magazine today. It has a SpecCast die cast collectable 340 Farmall in it. The dash is black.
 
Have 2 1961 and 3 1962 models all grey I have 2 1963 both are black I can't say that IH painted or not . The black ones are diesels all others are gas.
 
when I painted my 1959 660 a few years ago I used a dark gray as that is what it looked like the gray I used was mccormick deereing gray (got a rattle can from nnalert) like what the early 10-20 was painted and it looks good I don't know if it is the right color but as close as I can tell it works and I think it looks great. be careful they also have farmall gray which is much lighter. the picture shows it and it isa little dusty so it looks a little lighter in color andcell phone doesn't take the best pictures.

Here is the backside of my 450 dash panel, I'll assume the same grey was used.
