hi. i'm planning to do a good restoration on my 71. can anyone tell me where i can find some info about what kind of interior color combos a 71 coupe originally came in? right now my 71 has it's original black vinyl seats and panels with salt and pepper "fuzzy" carpet. in 1971 did any of the ghia interiors come in a different color? i plan to paint the exterior an original color as well, possibly silver poly/metallic. any interior color combo for this exterior color? your advice is greatly appreciated. thanks!

My 71 came with a stock brown seat cover set. I personally like the stuff at Revolks. ( www.revolks.com ) They have a great site with good graphics and lots of restoration projects that show the whole process with lots of different color combos. The guys happen also to be as cool as any you'll encounter.They will help with any question or problem gladly... which sadly is rare these days.
