Picture of civilian DC-3 Cockpit here:

You should be able to get a good color sample off of the picture. Gray instrument panel could make a nice distinction from C-47 and other DC-3 variants, but black was just as common.

Zinc Chromate primer is naturally yellow-green, but when applied to aluminum is apple green. A bit of black paint was often added to make it more ultraviolet resistant, so the color could be darker - almost olive drab. It also gets darker as it oxidizes. So, your choice of colors as long as it's ugly green!

This color will work just fine:

Here are a couple of color C-47 cockpits which show variants of Zinc Chromate primer. Note the variations! I'm starting to get the sense that no two C-47 cockpits were the same!

Way too much information about interior paint colors of US Aircraft:

Hi there,
I've just discover this project and you can't imagine how glad i am viewing the wip pictures.
Il2 1946 with New Guinea map and radio navigation is just the perfect sim to master the gooney bird in its great times.
So many potential thrilling and challenging missions...
You made my day!
I wish you the best for this project and can tell you Il2 1946 will stay on my hard disk as long as the project is living... and a very long tume after its realease
Best regards,
Gooney
