Special Carpets
Determine Components to be Changed
Depending upon the exterior color, greater harmony
may be created if, in addition to the carpet, the
instrument panels and steering wheel colors are also
changed. Following are examples:
Avoid Hood and Top of instrument Panel
Color Contrast
A White leather upholstery when combined with
such exterior colors as Green or Maroon results in a
sharp contrast of hood and the Black top of instru-
ment panel color.
This may be avoided by ordering the top of instru-
ment panel in Green or Maroon.
When this is done the lower instrument panel and
steering wheel should also be specified in color to
match the exterior. Otherwise, they would remain
Black, resulting in a three-tone interior.
Option of Two-Tone Instrument Panels
In a combination such as: 1) Flamenco Red exterior
2) Black interior and 3) Red carpets, a single or two-
tone combination of instrument panels is optional.
The top of instrument panel should be Red but the
lower panel and steering wheel may remain in Black
Trim Style
When a Brougham or Sixty Special is ordered in
Decordo cloth upholstery, it will be in pillow and
button style similar to leather or Damascus cloth,
except the center section of the seat will also be in
cloth instead of leather.
Light Gray Except on Seats
Medium Gray Decordo cloth is used on the entire
seat for both inserts and bolsters.
When ordered in other than a "75" body style, the
remainder of the interior components will be light
Gray.
matching the seats and creating a two-tone effect; or
both panels may be specified in Red, making a single
tone combination. The above would also apply to
Sandalwood upholstery.
Floor Covering Plush Cut Pile or Loop Pile
Tropicana Quality is a 100% nylon cut pile carpet-
ing and is used for the floor covering of all cars except
the Calais series.
Trenton Quality, 80% rayon, 20% nylon loop pile is
used for the floor covering in Calais series cars only.
Other Areas
In addition to floor covering, carpeting is applied on
such other parts of the interior as: lower doors, cowl
quarters, lower front seat back and on two-door cars,
the lower rear quarters.
Tamara Quality—a nylon cut pile—carpeting is used
on "other areas" of all cars except the Calais series.
Travana Quality—a rayon-nylon loop pile—carpet-
ing is used in "other areas" of Calais series cars.
Codes
Code numbers in the 200 series (those starting with
2) will be in Trenton loop pile quality. All others will
be in Tropicana cut pile.
Such parts include the front seat back panel, assist
grips, door pulls, door armrests, headlining, lower
instrument panel, steering wheel, plastic parts,
garnish moldings, front seat wings, windhose and
seat belts.
These components cannot be changed, as they are
prefabricated and available only in the light tone.
In summary, with code 719 Gray Decordo cloth a
two-tone effect is created between the medium Gray
upholstery color on the seats only and the other
interior components which are in light Gray.
