You need a black floor mat.

66-67 Deluxes used the brown and blue mats.

The holes are the same from 55-67, although 67s may have extra holes for seat belt mounts.

To keep it in one thread...

Gallery pics weren't much help. I am trying to find out if anyone knows the options for floor mat colors for a 67 walk through Velvet Green/White Deluxe with Platinum Mesh Interior. Was the beige (brown) offered as an option or any other color with this interior combo specifically? If so, would all the mats be the same color (ie the seat stands, walk through, front floor, and wt bulk heads)? Was black even sold with this combo? I have a beige (brown) cargo mat to start and was getting ready to pick up a front floor mat. Thanks in advance.

Yes, the front mat, cargo mat, and seat stand mats all matched in '66 and '67. You need the brown, a.k.a. "Polecat" mats for a Velvet Green deluxe.
I've been catching up on deluxe interiors lately too, specifically Platinum Mesh, so I have a lot of pics faved from the gallery. Here's the only one I found of a walk-through that shows the mat color:

Ok thanks. Any info on the lower bulkhead rubber as to matching or black, and the walkthrough mat between the 2 seats?

According to the parts list the 66-67 deluxes have colored mats. Including those places.
http://www.oacdp.org/5867part/489.png
look at
211 867 765 C

It comes in black for everything but 66-67 deluxes,
for 66-67 deluxes the colors are
polecat (for mesh platinum),
dark brown (for aero balearic), and
strato (for aero papyrus) mats

No carpet because I am doing an og interior. I guess the bottom line is just that I am not into the non-stock interior look.
