ORDER EXAMPLES
EXAMPLES
The order illustrations on pages 52 through
66 are examples of non-standard upholstery
and color orders. They represent some of the
most frequently ordered combinations.
Spaces, representing 8 major components of
an interior are captioned on the SPECIAL
FEATURES section of the order form 5600A.
Upholstery code numbers marked in these
spaces will determine the color and type of
material to be applied to the area covered by
the caption.
When ordering a special interior combina-
tion or exterior color, be guided by the illustra-
tions shown on the ensuing pages. This will
contribute to a correct understanding of the
special features wanted and expedite the
processing of the order without further clarifi-
cation.
BUTTONS
The following is an explanation of pur-
pose of buttons on certain upholstery styles
and why they should not be omitted.
For example, the De Ville trim style includes
oblong buttons on the back rest. In addition
to their decorative effect, these buttons, which
have a 1 W long prong with an oblong shaped
head, serve to tie down the upholstery fabric
and help retain the original trim design.
MACHINE PUNCHED LEATHER
Leather upholstery is "die cut" to size,
which means a machine stamps out the various
parts in correct shapes for upholstering the
seats.
The die includes a cut-out for piercing the
button holes. Therefore, to omit such buttons,
requires hand cutting the leather to avoid
making the holes.
Omitting the buttons would entail extra
hand labor to cut the upholstery, plus special
handling of the order.
DOOR PANELS
Door panels which include the arm rest are
a molded unit with a framed insert section
above the arm rest. This means that except for
the insert, the entire interior door panel is a
single color of vinyl material.
DE VILLE DOORS
Depending upon the upholstery on De Ville
cars, the door insert is in cloth or Rosewood.
H, M & P DOORS
In the Eldorado, Brougham and Sixty
Special the insert is Rosewood and it cannot be
replaced by any other material such as cloth
or vinyl.
The lower part of door panels is carpeted.
PAST MODEL UPHOLSTERY
Interiors in colors or fabrics not currently in
production cannot be furnished.
Past model materials, special color fabrics or
materials to be supplied by the customer can-
not be used unless it should match a current
interior color.
In addition to the basic insert upholstery
material, many other components are needed
to complete a harmonious interior. Vinyl and
pre-fabricated plastic parts, carpets, laces-
even the thread—are color-keyed to the regu-
lar interior color options and small quantities
of these parts in special color are not obtain-
able. For these reasons, the selection of fabrics
must be confined to the available options in the
upholstery sample book.
TRIM STYLES NOT
INTERCHANGEABLE
Upholstery styling is not interchangeable
between series.
INITIALS S. R.
The initials S. R. stand for "Special Re-
quest." They appear on special orders and in-
voices, representing a price for invoicing pur-
poses. This is a matter of information.
